Reviews:

Ethnic theater in the US has received little serious attention from scholars; this collection . . . is a major contribution toward filling this void. A number of essays are especially penetrating, representing excellence in all respects. Following Seller's useful introductory overview, each of the 19 original essays (from `Armenian-American Theatre' to `Yiddish Theatre in the United States') attempts to provide factual information and insights into the amateur and professional history of a particular ethnic theater tradition, as well as its social, educational, and political importance to the community. . . . The value of the essays is enhanced with the addition of copious notes, background information on the homelands of the groups and their native theater/drama, various appendixes, bibliographies, and an index to the whole. . . . Strongly recommended for undergraduate and graduate libraries; useful in theater, American history, and ethnic studies.
