Description

The British "New Wave" of dramatists, actors and directors in the late 1950s and 1960s created a defining moment in post-war theatre.

Drawing upon contemporary sources as well as the plays themselves, Stephen Lacey considers the plays' influences, their impact and their critical receptions. The playwrights discussed include: Edward Bond, John Osborne, Shelagh Delaney and Harold Pinter.
