Black-Authored Lynching Drama’S Challenge To Theater History, Koritha Mitchell
Black-Authored Lynching Drama’S Challenge To Theater History, Koritha Mitchell
Koritha Mitchell
This essay argues that U.S. theater history is incomplete without considering the theatricality of lynching. Thomas Dixon Jr. was as important as a playwright as the early stage realists William Gillette and William Moody. The essay also demonstrates that African Americans living at the height of mob violence understood that there was a "theater/lynching alliance" that created important parallels between "lynchcraft" and "stagecraft."
