Book Description
Few American playwrights have exerted as much influence on the contemporary stage as Sam Shepard. His plays are performed "on" and "off" Broadway as well as in all the major regional American theaters. They are also widely performed and studied in Europe, particularly in Britain, Germany and France, finding both a popular and a scholarly audience. This companion explores the various aspects of Shepard's career, providing fascinating first-hand accounts and substantial critical chapters on the plays, poetry, music, fiction, acting, directing and film work.
Review
"Materials that give this volume an advantage over any other recent studies include a lengthy interview with Shepard (conducted in May 2000), an essay by Roudane on the preproduction/publication script of The Late Henry Moss, and a brief note by Joseph Chaikin ("On Sam Shepard").... Highly recommended." -- Choice
"The best collection of scholarly essays on [American] drama this year." -- American Literary Scolarship
