This introduction to queer theatre and performance in the United States explores the pioneering artists that have shaped this ever-changing field across the past two centuries, through ten key moments and movements.

Designed for weekly use in queer and LGBTQ+ theatre courses, the ten chosen milestones move chronologically from nineteenth century shifts in the understanding of homosexuality through the queer postmodernist avant-garde to the rise of intersectionality and recognition of trans identities. This clear, dynamic framework uses ‘queer’ as a flexible and intersectional term, addressing sexualities and sexual identities, the people and groups who claim them, and the practices that challenge heteronormative structures.

Milestones are a range of accessible textbooks, breaking down the need-to-know moments in the social, cultural, political, and artistic development of foundational subject areas.

Dennis Sloan is Assistant Professor of Theatre at DePauw University, USA. His research focuses on queer theatre, Latinx Theatre, and the history of actor training. His work has appeared in New England Theatre Journal and Theatre History Studies. He is active in the American Society for Theatre Research and the Mid-America Theatre Conference.
