to the theater as a literary art. Nationally recognized directors, creators of literary adaptations, playwrights, performance artists, and others will contribute essays on the evanescent art form of theater and its ever changing relationship to literature and the print culture. Aspects of performance and production, and the challenges of keeping live theater alive in the digital age, will be addressed by award-winning artists from the ensembles of Steppenwolf and Lookingglass theaters and other institutions. Several essays will address the art of teaching theater and developing performance works in an academic setting with students.
