Thames Books:Acting Out America

Acting Out America
John Lahr

In this 1972 collection of essays John Lahr, then drama critic of Evergreen Review, discusses the aims and achievements of such groups as the Living Theatre, the San Francisco Mime Troupe and Enrique Vargas's ghetto street theatre, as well as the more conventionally constructed work of Edward Albee, Arthur Kopit, Jules Feiffer and others. 'Because [John Lahr] is, above all, a social critic,' wrote an enthusiastic reviewer in the Nation, 'his work reads like a series of essays on American social history which have as a common link an underlying interest in avant-garde theatrical movements.'
