***Listed in THE CHRONICLE OF HIGHER EDUCATION’s Weekly Book List, July 11, 2011*** Identifying an apprehension about the nature and constitution of urbanism in North American plays, Urban Drama examines how cities like New York City and Los Angeles became focal points for identity politics and social justice at the end of the twentieth century. In plays as different as Tony Kushner’s Angels in America, Anna Deavere Smith’s Twilight Los Angeles, 1992, and David Henry Hwang’s FOB, these concerns became spatialized against the urban environment, suggesting a shift of consciousness toward what critical geography has argued: The social is always spatial. Urban Drama interrogates how this shift informs playwriting in the 1980s and 1990s and inspires new modes of dramatic representation.
