Summer Stock! : An American Theatrical Phenomenon

Rating:
Summary: A memorable pleasure . . .
Review: Among the most memorable experiences of my childhood was being taken to the Sharon Playhouse in the Connecticut hills and seeing live plays like The Hostage and The Man Who Came to Dinner. Millions of Americans must share such memories. Reading Martha LoMonaco's SUMMER STOCK! brought those memories flooding back -- and let me understand what first rate theater was doing there nestled in the hills and forests of rural America. For anyone who ever enjoyed a summer stock performance, worked in a summer stock theater, or wondered about the role of summer stock in American theatrical history, SUMMER STOCK! will provide hours of entertainment and enlightenment.
