Brown's extensive research coheres into an invaluable theatrical and historical chronicle that should prove a useful resource for those working in the field. Content Provided by Syndetics.

A play performed at the McLean County Historical Society. Throughout the play, the actors move about when appropriate.

Some Dilemmas Confronting The Educational Theatre, Jared Brown

"Educational theatre": the term itself implies a dichotomy, or perhaps an amalgam of two quite different phenomena. A tension between the demands of education and the demands of the theatre does indeed exist, and it is the job of the teacher-artist to maintain a harmonious balance between them.

British Military Theatre In New York In 1780-81, Jared Brown
Jared Brown
From October 20, 1774, when the Continental Congress passed a resolution outlawing theatrical activities in America, until the formation of the Lindsay-Wall troupe that began performing illegally in Maryland in 1781 and, under the management of Dennis Ryan, shifted its base of operations to New York in 1783, the theatre in America was in a near-dormant state. The only significant exceptions to this condition were the productions of the occupying British military in various American localities, and a few productions by American military officers given in response. According to the strategy devised by the British high command in America, when …

Jared Brown
In early 1777, soon after the British military occupation of New York City began, a series of theatrical performances was inaugurated at the "Theatre Royal," a structure which had been built ten years earlier by the American Company of Comedians, and had been known as the John Street Theatre.

British officers played most of the major roles at the Theatre Royal, …

The Theater In The South During The American Revolution, Jared Brown
Jared Brown
Although the performance of plays on American soil during the
period of the Revolution was strictly prohibited by a Congressional
resolution of 1774 (reinforced by a similar resolution passed in 1778),
numerous theatrical productions were given by British officers garrisoned or imprisoned in various American cities between 1775 and
1783. American officers countered with occasional productions of
their own, but Congress's will was scrupulously obeyed in the case of
professional American performers-until 1781, when a professional
theatrical troupe began giving a series of performances in various
Maryland cities. What follows is the history of the theater in the South
