War, American people witnessed poverty, diseases, bad economic and
political aspects. Americans way of living turned into utter confusion.
These events led to anarchy and oppression.
American playwrights revealed the miserable reality in their
plays. Committed playwrights conveyed a real picture where people
suffered due to corruption. James Maxwell Anderson (1888-1959) dealt
with the recurrent theme of anarchy in most of his plays. In his play
Both Your Houses (1933) Anderson won the 1933 Pulitzer Prize for
Drama for this work which represents the struggle of a heroic
individual who confronts a corrupt system.
