Description

This Routledge Revivals edition presents Michelene Wandor's groundbreaking 1987 analysis of post-war British theatre, examining thirty years of landmark plays from Look Back in Anger onwards. Wandor investigates how family structures and sexuality are represented across key dramatic works, revealing gender as a central force shaping plot, character development and theatrical setting. The book compares the pre-1968 era of statutory censorship with the liberated period that followed, offering fresh critical perspective on canonical plays. Wandor's scholarship exposes the complex interplay between social change and dramatic representation, making this revival edition essential reading for theatre historians, students of drama, and anyone interested in how British theatre has grappled with gender roles and family dynamics across generations.
