Mostly Theatre : A History of the Theatre Department of Muskingum College

The theatre at Muskingum College grew out of the elocutionary movement, which later appeared as speech and theatre. In 1837, Muskingum College was founded by ministers and devout congregations for the purpose of educating ministers. Every president of the college in the nineteenth century was a minister. The close relationship of the ministry and elocution, combined with the Scotch-Irish love of education, made clear the love-hate relationship between the Presbyterians and the theatre. Dr. Don Hill's extensive research and attention to detail in this book make it an invaluable resource for any student of theatre or speech, or theatre historian.Hill, Donald is the author of 'Mostly Theatre : A History of the Theatre Department of Muskingum College', published 2002 under ISBN 9781887932769 and ISBN 1887932763.
