Gospel Plays, Operas, and Late Dramatic Works. Volume 6. The Collected Works of Langston Hughes
This volume focuses on Hughes's plays after 1942, along with all of his other work written for performance, including operas, musicals, radio plays, ballet librettos, and song lyrics, all of which demonstrate his strong determination to inject an African American presence into a range of cultural forms.
