Makes important interventions in theatre history regarding the Bowery Boy, a raucous, white, urban character. The book’s examination of working-class whiteness on stage, in the theatre, and in print culture invites historians and critics to check the impulse to downplay or ignore questions about race and ethnicity in discussion of the Bowery Boy.
