Method Acting and Its Discontents: On American Psycho-Drama
Shonni Enelow
Method Acting and Its Discontents: On American Psycho-Drama provides a new understanding of a crucial chapter in American theater history.
Publisher Marketing: In "Method Acting and Its Discontents," Enelow argues that Method acting and the contentious debates it provoked have much to reveal about the ideological conflicts that animated drama and theater in the United States during the 1950s and 1960s, conflicts that left lasting traces on American performance. Focusing on the practices and theories of Lee Strasberg at the Actors Studio, Enelow situates Method acting alongside cultural controversies about psychology and psychoanalysis, racial and sexual politics, and American postwar identity. The book also argues that Method acting s impact extended beyond the bounds of theatrical and cinematic performance, using case studies of works of drama by Tennessee Williams, James Baldwin, and William Inge, and a film by William Greaves. Enelow s book, the first of its kind, is an exciting affirmation of the myriad insights performance studies can yield into the larger culture."
