«Blueprints for a Black Federal Theatre» is the historical essay by Rena Fraden, published by Cambridge University Press in paperback.
Fraden studies the Federal Theatre Project, a theatre programme funded by the U.S. government in the 1930s, and the celebrated productions of its Negro Units, such as the «voodoo» Macbeth and the «swing» Mikado. She analyses the debates about the representation of racial difference and the place of an African-American theatre.
It forms part of the series Cambridge Studies in American Literature and Culture (no. 81). The work was originally published in 1994.
Recommended for readers interested in the history of American theatre, African-American studies, and the cultural policies of the 1930s.
