- Abstract
This article focuses on Eastern college theater directors in the U.S. and their attitude toward new dramatists and their feelings about producing his/her work. The East presents a fairly united front in accepting that new play production is one important function of the academic theater. According to Terrell Everett, director of dramatics at the University of Buffalo, the responsibility of educational theater is training, experimenting, presenting theater art to its audience. Eastern college directors believe that the larger university with a subsidized theatre is the logical one for wholeheartedly embracing a new play program. However, the educational theater in the rest of the nation has not maintained a particularly ambitious program of fostering the original play.
