Out on Stage by Alan Sinfield

Out on Stage

Lesbian and Gay Theatre in the Twentieth Century

Alan Sinfield

This intriguing book tracks stage representations of lesbians and gay men from Oscar Wilde to the present day. Alan Sinfield examines scores of British and American plays produced and viewed in alternative as well as West End and Broadway theaters. Theater, he argues, was and is an important place for the circulation of images of homosexuality and for the exploration of concepts of gender and sexuality.
