About this title: Program four examines how the epicenter of the theater and playwriting shifted to the United States, and how the musical became a major part of the theater.

About the Series: From the beginnings of western democracy in ancient Greece, plays have been a part of the human experience, helping us understand ourselves and make sense of the world. This five part series, A History of Great Playwrights, hosted by William Ambrose, founder of Ambrose Video Publishing, focuses on the rich literary tradition of the theater - its plays and playwrights, including such greats as Sophocles, Terence, William Shakespeare, Molière, Henrik Ibsen, Eugene O'Neill, Bertolt Brecht, Tennessee Williams, Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tom Stoppard. With their unique perspective of the world around them, these playwrights have added depth and meaning to the world's great body of literature.
