First published in 1967, The Theatre of Commitment is a captivating collection of seven essays written over a span of fifteen years. Eric Bentley delves into profound themes such as the fate of drama as a species, the unique essence of American drama, the very nature of theatre, the merits and demerits of political theatre, a heartfelt letter to a budding playwright, and the theatre of commitment. While for the majority, the term "theatre of commitment" primarily connotes political theater, Bentley astutely points out that the term "commitment" possesses a broad enough scope to encompass the work of any serious writer, regardless of their commitment to non-commitment. This thought-provoking anthology is an invaluable resource for students of theatre and performance studies, offering a profound exploration of the artistic and societal dimensions of drama.
