What reading level is The New American Drama book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We have not had a more convincing illustration of the value of the stage symbol still to awaken the imagination deadened by a surfeit of scenery. The response to the exotic note struck by such work, and further evi- denced by recent plays like "The Garden of Allah," "The Daughter of Heaven," "Bella Donna," "Kismet," and "Joseph and His Romance i^l Brethren" (though most of these are of other than American manufacture), is teaching us that audiences will surely react from a too ex- clusive atten...tion to insistent social satire, and desires to enjoy, from time to time, an irre- sponsible and sportive imaginative mood for its own sake.
Mr. Austin Strong is a young romanticist in the drama whose work is refreshingly away from realism in the narrow sense. His one-act piece, "A Little Father of the Wil- derness," so admirably played by Francis Wilson, was a delightful example of the imaginative handling of historic material, and "The Toy-Maker of Nuremberg" possessed rare charm of sympathy and poetic feeling.
