Robert Gards timeless book is a moving account of one mans struggle to bring his dream of community-building through creative theater to citizens around the country. He traveled across America-from New Yorks Finger Lakes to the prairies of Alberta, Canada, to the backwoods of northern Wisconsin-discovering and nurturing the folklore, legends, history, and drama of the region. He talked to ballad singers, painters, the tellers of tall tales, and farm women, whose poetry and painting reflected the elemental violence of nature and quiet joys of neighborliness. Grassroots Theater reminds us that an individuals creative vision transcends technology, current events, and changing demographics.This reprint of Grassroots Theater was generously funded by the Robert E. Gard Wisconsin Idea Foundation, an affiliate of the Wisconsin Academy of Sciences, Arts & Letters.
