Stewart Kidd Dramatic Anthologies

TWENTY CONTEMPORARY ONE-ACT PLAYS

AMERICAN

Edited by Frank Shay

This volume represents a careful and intelligent selection of the best One-act Plays written by Americans and produced by the Little Theatres in America during the season of 1921. They are representative of the best work of writers in this field and show the high level to which the art theatre has risen in America.

The editor has brought to his task a love of the theatre and a knowledge of what is best through long association with the leading producing groups.

The volume contains the repertoires of the leading Little Theatres, together with bibliographies of published plays and books on the theatre issued since January, 1920.
