- Abstract:
Up to now, the theater in the U.S. has enjoyed fond, fairly easy existence. Its practitioners have been less troubled by sponsors' prejudices and mob pressures than those in practically any other branch of the entertainment world. The theater is still a happy-go-lucky institution, happier of purpose and luckier in its several latitudes of make-believe than most. But the threat to freedom in the theater is only just beginning and it has begun. The theater picketing is a peculiarly dire threat as plays are much bigger risks, much more perishable, grimly mortal. It costs major efforts and round fortunes to bring productions to Broadway nowadays.
