Product Description
In April, 1951, Maryat Lee made theater history on an East Harlem street by producing
Dope!, the beginning of street theater in New York. Her dream of creating an alternative theater which would involve all people, not just the artistic elite, ultimately led Lee to rural West Virginia and the establishment of EcoTheater, where Lee led people to weave theater from the stories of their own lives.
