Censorship of the American Theatre in the Twentieth Century

Censorship of the American Theatre in the Twentieth Century (Cambridge Studies in American Theatre and Drama, Series Number 16)

Arguing that theatrical censorship coincides with significant challenges to religious, political and cultural traditions, John Houchin explores its impact on twentieth-century American theatre. Along with the well-known example of the House Un-American Activities Committee in the 1950s, other almost equally influential events affected the course of the American stage during the century. After a summary of censorship in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century America, Houchin analyzes key political and theatrical events between 1900 and 2000.
