Commentary on anthology


• Includes a "bibliography (pp. 70-121) on black theater and drama—mainly books, plays and articles by black writers, but lists a few entries by whites also. More than nine hundred items, including theses. This valuable bibliography is arranged in chronological order—from pre-1930 drama to 1968" (Rowell 1972: 65).
• This volume "includes only five plays, two of them by Loften Mitchell, but it contains much pedagogical information and an excellent chronological bibliography" (Kinnamon 1997: 475).
• "This volume is an outgrowth of an institute in Black Repertory Theatre held at the University of California, Santa Barbara in the summer, 1968" (WorldCat).
