Theater, Aids, and the Marketing of Gay America

Beschreibung

Offers a part gossipy narrative, part behind-the-scenes glimpse into the New York theatre culture, and part polemic on how mainstream artists co-opt the work of marginal artists. This book uses the suspicions of copyright infringement to initiate a larger conversation on how AIDS and gay experience are represented in American art and commerce.
