Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive study of the early performances of Otway's plays in Providence, Rhode Island. The author examines the historical and cultural context of these performances, and he provides detailed accounts of the productions themselves. The book explores the ways in which Otway's plays were received by Providence audiences, and it sheds light on the development of American theater in the eighteenth century. The author argues that Otway's plays were particularly popular in Providence because they appealed to the city's growing sense of civic pride and its desire for cultural refinement. The book also examines the ways in which Otway's plays were used to promote political and social causes. In addition, the book includes a number of appendices that provide valuable information about the early Providence stage. This book is a valuable resource for scholars of American theater and cultural history.
