Abstract

The article is aimed at describing the main characteristics of communicative strategies within the contemporary American society based on the dramatic materials published in 1985–2014. The communicative trends described in the present article reflect the specific aspects of American speakers’ speech behavior that occur under the influence of stylized spoken English. On the other hand, these specific features occur due to universal markers of American dramatic discourse providing the mobility of its border parameters.
