Staging Quakerism In American Theatre And Film, James Emmett Ryan
Staging Quakerism In American Theatre And Film, James Emmett Ryan
Quaker Studies
Arguing that Quakers have been used as influential stock characters in American performance culture, this essay profiles several examples of Quakers as represented in American theater and film: John Murdock's play The Triumphs of Love (1795), Harry F.

The play offers up the character …

The Anti-Theatrical Prejudice And The Quakers, Michael P. Graves
Truth's Bright Embrace: Essays and Poems in Honor of Arthur O. Roberts

Indeed, one could argue that the situation has changed radically in the last three hundred fifty years, but there remains an ambiguity at best, an antipathy at worst, between Quaker thought and the theatre. This topic is too broad to be encompassed within the limits of this essay, which can merely open doors slightly to a subject that should be treated in more depth at another time and …
