Publisher Description: American theatre has been greatly impacted by the concept of color blind casting practices. This socio-historical perspective examines Black American cultural and theatrical identity and development over a period of 300 years in an effort to determine the practicality of color blind practices onstage. Dr. Jocelyn A. Brown brings the issues into sharp focus, offering prescriptive measures that might bridge the gap between theory and practice. |
