Abstract
After tracing the emergence of historical documents as literature in the twentieth century, this essay describes a particular method for devising an historical/documentary drama for readers theatre. The method relies on a central historical event (the Army‐McCarthy Hearings) as the drama's nucleus, and integrates tangential historical incidents to unify the major action in dramatizing the repressive nature of the McCarthy Era.
