The methods of the 'new' history have helped to define the study of theatre history; at the same time, these methods tend to de-emphasize the influence of the politics of the nation state on that history. This can create tension in a discipline such as Canadian theatre history that defines itself by national as well as cultural criteria. This article illustrates the tension by comparing the definition of theatrical culture implicit in two examples of the Upper Canada (Wellington County) local press during the 1860s with that of an American trade journal for the same period. Reference is made to the Civil War, the Fenian raids, and Confederation.
