This collection brings Crothers’s best plays back into the public eye, outside of archives, to prove their continued relevance to life in the 21st century. The issues raised in plays such as Susan and God (1937), Mary the Third (1923), and A Man’s World (1910) concern career versus motherhood/parenthood, marriage, the double standard, generational divisions providing representations that audiences today understand and appreciate.Rachel Crothers was considered in her own time to be “the most famous woman playwright in America” (Charles E. Barnum, Sunday Morning Star). At her peak, 26 of her plays graced Broadway and touring stages, on par with Eugene O’Neill’s record, and Hollywood adapted more than half of those for the silver screen, making her one of the most prominent playwrights of the early 20th century. Forgotten Broadway is the first edited collection of plays by Crothers, demonstrating her impressive accomplishments as a writer-director during one of the most important periods of Broadway history. Known by her contemporaries as an "all-around woman of the theatre" due to her double duty as a writer and practitioner, despite all her successes, her plays have fallen out of print and are rarely produced in any theatrical setting.
