The exploration of urbanism in North American plays reveals how cities like New York and Los Angeles became central to identity politics and social justice by the late twentieth century. Westgate delves into the impact of urban crises on the works of contemporary playwrights, highlighting how these issues shape their narratives and dramaturgy. Through this lens, the book offers insights into the evolving relationship between urban environments and theatrical expression.
