WHAT IS THEATRE?
Given the changing nature of audiences, entertainment, and media, the role of theatre in twenty-first century culture is changing. The WHAT IS THEATRE? series brings new and innovative work in literary, cultural, and dramatic criticism into conversation with established theatre texts and trends, in order to offer fresh interpretations and highlight new or undervalued artists, works, and trends. ANN C. HALL has published widely in the area of theatre and film studies, is president of the Harold Pinter Society, and is an active member in the Modern Language Association. In addition to her book A Kind of Alaska: Women in the Plays of O’Neill, Pinter, and Shepard, she has edited a collection of essays, Making the Stage: Essays on Theatre, Drama, and Performance. Hall is also the author of a book on the various stage, film, print, and television versions of Gaston Leroux’s Phantom of the Opera, Phantom Variations: The Adaptations of Gaston Leroux’s Phantom of the Opera, 1925 to the Present.
