Sumario:"In The Making of American Audiences, Richard Butsch provides a comprehensive study of American entertainment audiences from the colonial period to the present. Covering theater, minstrelsy, vaudeville, movies, radio, and television, he examines the evolution of audiences as each genre supplanted another as the primary popular entertainment. Based on original historical research, this volume exposes how audiences made themselves through their practices, and how they were made by contemporary discourses."--Jacket.
