ABOUT THIS BOOK

Reimagining the archive, one performance at a time.

Theatre History Studies is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to excellence in theatre historiography. Volume 29, edited by Rhona Justice-Malloy, includes essays that span a wide range of historical periods, geographic regions, and thematic concerns. Highlights include explorations of pain and torment in performance, the aesthetics of American modernity through Belasco and Jones, and the cultural politics of prohibition on stage. The volume also features visual and archival studies, including an interview with playwright Wendy Wasserstein and analyses of Shakespeare’s reception in Restoration theatre. With contributions from over thirty scholars, this edition offers a rich and multifaceted view of how theatre reflects, resists, and reshapes historical narratives.
