750 words

What is theatrical liberalism according to Andrea Most and why would it impact our understanding of plays, musicals, movies produced by Jewish authors esp. for the 1920's, 1930's and 1940's? (Before you try to provide a synthesis of Most's arguments, you may want to re-read her introduction, and from chapter 2, p. 60, 66-71, 75-78, 86-87.)
