Kimberly Poppiti (Author)
"A History of Equestrian Drama in the United States documents the history of hippodrama in the United States, and clarifies the multi-faceted significance of the form and of the related stage machinery developed to produce hippodramas. The development of hippodrama is traced from its origins and influences in the 18th century, through the height of the forms popularity at the turn of the 20th century. Analysis of the historical significance of the hippodramatic genre within the larger context of United States theatre, the elucidation of the importance of the horse to theatre, and an evaluation of the lasting impact on theatre technology are also included."--Provided by publisher
