A compilation of seven of Sterling Houston’s avant-garde and postmodern plays, this unique anthology underscores the playwright’s life as well as his contributions. Spanning more than 100 years, these productions explore Texan society as it was influenced by history—from the development of San Antonio and World Wars I and II to the civil rights movement and beyond. Whether written as farce, tragedy, or musical docudrama, these remarkable performances embody Houston’s satiric and rebellious perspective. Providing insight into African American culture, this collection is not only entertaining but also innovative.
