About the Book

Ken Moskowitz's careful study of American plays in Bulgarian performance provides a cross-cultural comparative perspective with an interdisciplinary approach to answer these questions: What transformation did the Bulgarian adapters--the dramaturges, directors, and translators--of Dale Wasserman's ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST, Tony Kushner's ANGELS IN AMERICA, and Edward Albee's THE GOAT, OR WHO IS SYLVIA? make in the adaptation? What if anything was 'untranslatable' and how did they handle that? What lessons or messages does the reaction of the Bulgarian theatre audience and the Bulgarian theatre critic have for the creative teams? What do these adaptations tell us about the problems of theatrical adaptation in general? How do these lessons diverge from current thinking or the literature on adaptation?
About the Author: Ken Moskowitz received his Ph. D. the Theatre Arts in 2012 from from the National Academy of Theatre and Film Arts in Sofia, Bulgaria. He produced the only staging of Woody Allen's "Don't Drink the Water" in its fictional setting, Communist Budapest, in 1987. In recent years, he has worked backstage for The Arlington Players (VA) community theatre and became its marketing director in 2015. That same year he retired after 30 years as a Foreign Service officer responsible for press and cultural affairs.
