  • Dramatic Mirror, November 7, 1891, P. 8. 2. Helen Ten Broeck, “Rida Young—Dramatist and Garden Expert,” Theatre (April 1917): 202
    NOTES INTRODUCTION 1. Ali Baba, “Mirror Interview: XXI—Martha Morton,” Dramatic Mirror, November 7, 1891, p. 8. 2. Helen Ten Broeck, “Rida Young—Dramatist and Garden Expert,” Theatre (April 1917): 202. 3. See Progressive Era at http://www.wikipedia.com. 4. Rachel Crothers (1878–1958), considered America’s first modern feminist playwright for her social comedies and woman-centered themes, is the only woman usually included within the “canon” of playwrights during the Progressive Era. Her production in 1906 of The Three of Us marked the beginning of a thirty-year career as a professional playwright and director in American theater. Her plays were well-constructed and dealt with pertinent issues of the time, such as the unfairness of the double standard and women’s conflicts between career and motherhood; her plays are still revived today. Unlike the other women in this study who are essentially “unknown,” Crothers has been extensively written about in dissertations and journals and, therefore, is not included in this study. For a recent arti- cle on Crothers, see Brenda Murphy, “Feminism and the Marketplace: The Career of Rachel Crothers,” in The Cambridge Companion to American Women Playwrights, ed. Brenda Murphy (New York: Cambridge University Press, 1999), 82–97. 5. About fifty-one women dramatists achieved two or more productions in New York between 1890 and 1920. Portions of this chapter are from Sherry Engle, “An ‘Irruption of Women Dramatists’: The Rise of America’s Woman Playwright, 1890–1920,” New England Theatre Journal 12 (2001): 27–50. 6. A prime example is Morton’s The Movers (1907), which despite being a box office failure, was defended by several prominent critics.

  • Bernard Shaw's Admirable Bashville : Playwright and Prizefighter
    PHYSICAL CULTURE AND SPORT. STUDIES AND RESEARCH DOI: 10.2478/pcssr-2013-0014 Bernard Shaw's Admirable Bashville : Playwright and Prizefighter 1 A-E 2 A-E Authors’ contribution: Jorge Knijnik , Bob Petersen A) conception and design of the study 1University of Western Sydney , School of Education (NSW, Australia) B) acquisition of data 2Independent scholar (NSW, Australia) C) analysis and interpretation of data D) manuscript preparation E) obtaining funding ABSTRACT Bernard Shaw’s little blank-verse play, The Admirable Bashville, or, Constancy Unrewarded is a play where two types of performance, sport and drama, interact on the stage. It was written in 1901 and it was performed three times in London under Shaw's auspices in 1901, in 1904, and in January-February 1909. Its next performance was in Vienna in 1924; then it was performed in Sydney in 1927. Shaw was an enthusiastic admirer of the bare - knuckled art of fighting, though he has written Bashville as a portrait of a period when this art was disapearing to be replaced by the noble art of boxing, under the new Queenberry’s rulling. This essay examines both the play itself, throwing new lights over obscur characters of the play, such as Cetewayo the Black African king, and even over Bashville, the prize-fighter. As copyrights laws of that period did not guarantee Shaw’s rights over his works, the paper shows Shaw’s attempts to keep the copyrights over his work, by performing the play as many times and under any conditions. Under copyright laws he could lose all his rights if the play were performed by other producers beforehand.
