Description

Explore the evolution of British theatre through a scholarly lens with Look Back in Gender by Michelene Wandor. Originally published in 1987 as part of the Routledge Revivals series, this book examines the most significant plays from the thirty years leading up to its release, starting from Look Back in Anger. This work investigates how the family and various forms of sexuality are represented on stage. By re-reviewing these classic plays, Wandor demonstrates how gender acts as a primary factor in shaping plot, setting, and character development. The text provides a deep analysis of the transition between two distinct eras: the period before 1968, when statutory censorship controlled the stage, and the years following its abolition. Perfect for students, academics, and theatre enthusiasts, this book offers a detailed look at how social changes and legal shifts influenced the portrayal of identity in post-war British drama. It provides a necessary perspective on the history of performing arts and the social forces that shaped the theatrical landscape of the twentieth century.
