1 STAGING MODERN AMERICAN LIFE
2 WHAT IS THEATRE? Edited by Ann C. Hall Given the changing nature of audiences, entertainment, and media, the role of theatre in twenty-first-century culture is changing. The WHAT IS THEATRE? series brings new and innovative work in literary, cultural, and dramatic criticism into conversation with established theatre texts and trends, in order to offer fresh interpretation and highlight new or undervalued artists, works, and trends. ANN C. HALL has published widely in the area of theatre and film studies, is president of the Harold Pinter Society, and is an active member in the Modern Language Association. In addition to her book A Kind of Alaska: Women in the Plays of O Neill, Pinter, and Shepard, she has edited a collection of essays, Making the Stage: Essays on Theatre, Drama, and Performance and a book on the various stage, film, print, and television versions of Gaston Leroux s Phantom of the Opera. Published by Palgrave Macmillan: Theatre, Communication, Critical Realism By Tobin Nellhaus Staging Modern American Life: Popular Culture in the Experimental Theatre of Millay, Cummings, and Dos Passos By Thomas Fahy Authoring Performance: The Director in Contemporary Theatre (forthcoming) By Avra Sidiropoulou

8 Acknowledgments I want to thank Ann C. Hall, Samantha Hasey, and the team at Palgrave Macmillan for making this book a reality. It was a pleasure working with you every step of the way. Over the years, I have been the beneficiary of the insightful feedback, immense generosity, unwavering support, and dear friendship of Kirstin Ringelberg, Susann Cokal, James MacDonald, and John Lutz. Thanks for the many hours you spent reading and commenting on this manuscript. I am fortunate to have so many supportive and generous colleagues at Long Island University including Jeanie Attie, Kay Sato, Deborah Lutz, James Bednarz, Marge Hallissy, Dennis Pahl, Katherine Hill- Miller, and the C. W. Post Campus Faculty Research Committee. I also want to express my appreciation to Michael Webster, whose E. E. Cummings expertise enhanced chapter 2, and to Meghan Finn for sharing her impressive 2008 production of Him with me. My thanks to Modern Drama (University of Toronto Press), The Journal of American Culture (Wiley-Blackwell), Spring: The Journal of the E. E. Cummings Society for permission to reprint some of the material included in this book. Lastly, none of this work would be possible without the love and support of my family, especially my mother and father, Mike and Jen Fahy, who generously contributed to the cover design. I cannot thank Victoria Tsinberg enough for the countless hours she spent with Nicolai while I was writing this book. And Tatyana always finds ways to remind me of the truly important things in life. It is with love and gratitude that I dedicate this book to you.
