| Abstract | "The fourth in a series of books exploring the careers of 28 contemporary American playwrights, this book covers the work of Brandon Jacobs-Jenkins, Tarell Alvin McCraney, Stephen Karam and Lucas Hnath. These award-winning playwrights deploy different dramatic strategies, even as they make their audiences complicit, in plays which range widely in styles and approach. Christopher Bigsby interweaves analysis of their work with biographical information, contemporary responses and the writers' own comments on their work, drawn from interviews. He reflects on identity in the work of these playwrights, asking the extent to which it is central or incidental to their work"-- Provided by publisher |
