Viewing the black stage as a "temple of liberation" designed to preserve, maintain, and perpetuate the richness of the black lifestyle, the contributors examine the audiences and critics who have for years observed black drama. From the birth of the Harlem Renaissance and the ereation of the Lafayette Players to the emergence of today's National Black Theatre of 125th Street, Harlem, this volume offers a penetrating look at a black art form that has exploded into an American cultural institution." #AmericanNegroTheatre #Bookstagram #Play #CoverArt #instaread #BlackTheater #BooksBooksBooks #Drama #booksforsale #Antiquarian #Vintage #bookcollecting #instabooks #bibliophile #ErrolHill #AfricanAmerican #TwentiethCenturyViews #collectiblebooks #CuttleboneBooks #Books #Bookworm #booksale #Scarce #BlackPeople #readersofinstagram
