Theatre at the Crossroads, 1960 John Gassner

Theatre at the Crossroads  Plays and Playwrights of the Mid-Century American Stage, 1960 by John Gassner (1903 -1967) presents the considered views of an eminent critic and historian of American drama and theater.

Gassner's thoughtful investigation concludes that the mid-century playwright has reached a philosophical conflict between traditional realism and avante-garde experiments requiring a reassessment of theater values.
