Description
"Throughout history, various political, social, and religious power structures have used drama as a propaganda tool, and these structures have also demanded the elimination or modification of plays that did not agree with their philosophies. The suppression of drama by organized groups remains a disturbing reality in the 21st century." "Banned Plays outlines the censorship history of 125 classic plays from ancient times to the present. Each entry presents the name(s) under which the play has appeared, the date it was produced and place of original production, a summary of the play, its censorship history, and suggestions for further readings."--BOOK JACKET.
