Historical drama, the means by which we live in the past and understand our heritage, is no longer confined to the large cities but in some form is now within the reach of most Americans. To assist the nonprofessional and others associated with the problems of writing and producing such drama competently and successfully, the authors have written this comprehensive guidebook. It contains a wealth of practical suggestions, sketches for indoor and outdoor settings, sample scripts, and charts and graphs showing organizational and production structures, together with a mine of information on budgets, community relations, and other matters. The book is written for the nonspecialists, but it will be equally interesting to the professional. The advice for sponsors or producers is full and complete. The drawings include suggested staging arrangements for presentations in churches, auditoriums, stadiums, and outdoor locations, as well as sketches of some of the theatres (indoor and outdoor) now in use, adaptable to any community. Consideration is given to how a playwright may assemble and develop his material. Biography-drama is illustrated by a sample script, as are the development of pageant-drama and the writing of epic-drama. Appendices to the book include list of selected historical dramas, a glossary of terms, and a list of references.

This exercise in reading Shakespeare's history plays as history sets out to challenge Tillyard's view that the plays may be read as historical evidence for the providence-driven theory of history and as defences of Tudor legitimacy, but are negligible as works of history.

Abstract: Over the past decade, reality television has become one of the most popular television genres. Documentary theatre occupies a similar niche within this viewer climate. Composed principally of primary source information, documentary theatre claims to possess more historical validity than other forms of historical drama, which employs original dialogue and allows more flexibility with chronological order with the aim of heightening the dramatic tension. The purpose of this thesis is to explore whether documentary theatre functions as history, or if it surrenders that validity by virtue of it being in a dramatic rather than a scholarly form. By focusing on how the genre appropriates the methodologies and techniques in the creation and execution of history and drama, the tensions that give documentary dramas power beyond that of tragedy are revealed. Dramatists such as Moisés Kaufman, Anna Deavere Smith and Emily Mann make use of several techniques employed by historians, from a sensitive gathering of primary source material, contextualizing the information within a certain frame, and constructing a thorough narrative of an event. However, they are dramatists by trade, and as such are interested not in creating historical documents but viable stage plays. Thus, their docudramas also make use of dramatic techniques, particularly those of tragedy. The documentary theatre, then, functions both as drama and history, and the interplay of those two forces.

Television drama has been the dominant form of popular storytelling for more than sixty years, shaping the imaginations of millions of people. This book surveys the careers of the central creators of those stories for Australian television—the writers who learnt how to work in a new medium, adapting to its constraints and exploring its creative possibilities. Informed by interviews with many writers, it describes the establishment of Australian television drama production, observing the way writers grasped the creative and business opportunities that television presented. It examines the development of Australian versions of the major television genres—the sitcom, the police drama, the historical series, docudrama, and social drama— presenting a ‘canon’ of significant Australian television drama productions that deserve to be remembered. It offers an account of the emergence of work by Indigenous writers for television and it argues for the consideration of television drama alongside histories of Australian film and stage drama. ‘For years, Susan Lever has been talking to Australia’s best television writers about their work, their craft and their industry. Now it’s all here in this book; a toast to a vital part of Australian culture.’ – Geoffrey Atherden ‘This is a wonderful book. Meticulously researched and engagingly written, it tells in fascinating detail, from the writers’ points of view, the story of Australian scripted television from its beginnings in the 1950’s, to the present. Better yet, Susan Lever has allowed the writers themselves to speak about the work, about their visions and processes, their joys and frustrations. I am delighted to see television drama, docudrama and comedy acknowledged so generously for their role in Australian culture.’ – Sue Smith ‘Brilliantly researched, lucid, comprehensive … the big picture on writers for the small screen in Australia.’ – Ian David

By examining theatre practices in Europe and North America, this book explores collective creation's roots in the theatrical experiments of the early twentieth century.
