A SOURCEBOOK OF AFRICAN-AMERICAN PERFORMANCE

A Sourcebook on African-American Performance: Plays, People, Movements is the first volume to consider African-American performance between and beyond the Black Arts Movement of the 1960s and the New Black Renaissance of the 1990s.


The Sourcebook consists of writings previously published in The Drama Review (TDR) as well as newly commissioned pieces by notable scholars, writers and performers including Annemarie Bean, Ed Bullins, Barbara Lewis, John O'Neal, Glenda Dicker/sun, James V. Hatch, Warren Burdine, Jr, and Eugene Nesmith. Included are articles, essays, manifestos and interviews on

Annemarie Bean is an assistant professor of theatre at Williams College, Williamstown, Massachusetts. She was managing editor of The Drama Review for three years, and is the co-editor, with James V. Hatch and Brooks McNamara, of Inside the Minstrel Mask: Readings in Nineteenth-Century Blackface Minstrelsy (Wesleyan University Press/University Press of New England, 1996), winner of the 1997 Errol Hill Award given by the American Society for Theatre Research for outstanding scholarship in African-American theatre studies. Her current project is a study of gender impersonation by white and African-American nineteenth-century minstrels.


Worlds of Performance

General Editor: Richard Schechner

WORLDS OF PERFORMANCE

What is a performance? Where does it take place? Who are the participants? Not so long ago these were settled questions, but today such orthodox answers are unsatisfactory, misleading, and limiting Performance as a theoretical category and as a practice has expanded explosively. It now comprises a panoply of genres ranging from play, to popular entertainments, to theatre, dance, and music, to secular and religious rituals, to performance in everyday life, to intercultural experiments, and more.

For nearly forty years, The Drama Review (TDR), the journal of performance studies, has been at the cutting edge of exploring these questions. The Worlds of Performance Series is designed to mine the extraordinary riches and diversity of TDR's decades of excellence, bringing back into print important essays, interviews, artists' notes, and photographs. New materials and introductions bring the volumes up to date. Each World of Performance book is a complete anthology, arranged around a specific theme or topic. Each World of Performance book is an indispensable resource for the scholar, a textbook for the student, and an exciting eye-opener for the general reader.

PREFACE

The germination of this project possibly began on a late summer day in 1984 when I was an undergraduate student of Robert O'Meally in his Introduction to African-American Studies class. On that particular day, Professor O'Meally entered the classroom, strode over to the open-air window looking down on the illogically placed football field in the middle of the Wesleyan University campus, and placed a tape recorder on the sill. Music began without an introduction, but I soon realized we were learning this lesson by listening to the music of Bessie Smith. We the students sat and waited for interruption, for a critical application by the professor of Smith's fluid yet strained music to our future course of study. There was none. As I remember it, or at least like to tell the story, Professor O'Meally began, administered, and completed that day's lesson in the study of African-American literary studies by pressing a play button; the restconnections between Smith's music and the novels we were reading, confusion about the value of music in relation to literature, bliss because we were part of the beautiful experience of listening to artwas up to us.
