  • 1956 and All Thatby Dan Rebellato

    Taylor and Francis 2002; US$ 41.95

    It is said that British Drama was shockingly lifted out of the doldrums by the 'revolutionary' appearance of John Osborne's Look Back in Anger at the Royal Court in May 1956. But had the theatre been as ephemeral and effeminate as the Angry Young Men claimed? Was the era of Terence Rattigan and 'Binkie' Beaumont as repressed and closeted as it seems?... more...

  • Alan Ayckbourn Plays 4by Alan Ayckbourn

    The Revengers' Comedies A hugely entertaining pitch that recalls the old movies to which it frequently pays homage - Strangers on a Train, Rebecca, Kind Hearts and Coronets - and expands after intermission to reveal an immensely disturbing vision of contemporary middle-class England poisoned by the rise of economic ruthlessness and the collapse of... more...

  • Amid Our Troublesby J. Michael Walton

    A&C Black 2002; US$ 32.50

    New essays on ancient Greek classics from Ireland's greatest living dramatists and academics. That so many Irish playwrights should return to the Greek classics can not really be a surprise.
