A study of the lives and accomplishments of five women dramatists ofthe Progressive Era: Martha Morton, Madeleine Lucette Ryley, Evelyn Greenleaf Sutherland, Beulah Marie Dix, and Rida Johnson Young.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

The proliferation of women dramatists during America?s Progressive Era * Dean of women dramatists, Martha Morton, 1865-1925 : Plays of Martha Morton * English-American Success, Madeleine Lucette Ryley, 1858-1934 * Plays of Madeleine Lucette Ryley * Collaborators extraordinaire, Evelyn Greenleaf Sutherland, 1855-1908, and Beulah Marie Dix, 1875-1970: Plays of Evelyn Greenleaf Sutherland and Beulah Marie Dix 1875-1970: Plays of Evelyn Greenleaf Sutherland and Beulah Marie Dix * Dramatist, songwriter, and lyricist, Rida Johnson Young, 1875-1926: Plays and musicals of Rida Johnson Young * Early feminists: setting examples for futuregenerations.

This study reveals in depth the lives and work of five little-known women dramatists: Martha Morton, 1865-1925, Madeleine Lucette Ryley, 1858-1934, Evelyn Greenleaf Sutherland, 1855-1908, Beulah Marie Dix, 1876-1970, and Rida Johnson Young, 1875-1926. Entering playwriting at a time when very few women wrote for the stage, these pioneers achieved thriving careers and entertained theatergoersthroughout the United States and Great Britain with their wholesome, light comedies, farces and musicals. Their collective experience as professional dramatists reveals trends of late nineteenth- andearly twentieth-century theatre practices and their accomplishments in a male-dominated profession serve to underscore hitherto unacknowledged contributions to America's Progressive Era theatre.
