American Theater of the 1960s (A Chicago Classic) - Hardcover
From the perspective of a Hungarian scholar who has spent much time in the United States, Zoltān Szilassy seeks through the dramaturgical kaleidoscope of the American l960s to locate what is permanent in some of the varied heritage of the period and to explore the whirlpool of innovations, many of which are nondramatic in origin or character.
The book is divided into two parts, The Rebellious Drama” and The Intermedia.” The three chapters in Part 1 are Edward Albee: First among Equals,” Varieties of the Albee Generation,” and The Dramaturgical Kaleidoscope of the Sixties.” Part 2 contains Happenings and New Performance Theories,” The Regional Alternative Theater,” and Conclusion, Outlook, and Reminiscences.”
Surveying the American dramatic scene, Szilassy concludes: The European observer may still hope that Americans will keep or rather develop the kind of theatrical equilibrium that duly made the sixties unforgettable both at home and abroad.”
