Synopsis

"Theater As Problem deserves applause. Inside and outside the academy, those who are interested in drama and theater will learn from and argue with this original, thought-provoking book."--Gay Gibson Cima, author of Performing Women: Female Character, Male Playwrights, and the Modern Stage Using examples ranging from nineteenth-century Viennese comedy to Friedrich Drrenmatt's atomic-age theater, Benjamin Bennett explores what is at stake in the theory of drama; what sort of questioning makes up that theory; and in what direction such questioning leads.
