What is Performing the American Frontier, 1870–1906 (Cambridge Studies in American Theatre and Drama, Series Number 13) about?
<i>Performing the American Frontier, 1870-1906</i> examines how the American frontier was presented in theatrical productions during the critical period from the end of the Civil War to the beginning of film. From famous personages such as Mark Twain and "Buffalo Bill" Cody to lesser known individuals such as Native American playwright and actress Gowongo Mohawk, Hall examines the plays, the players, and the playwrights who helped to define the American westward migration in theatrical terms and covers the complete dramatic experience including scenery, performance, and staging.
