Twenty-First Century Anxieties Dys/Utopian Spaces and Contexts in Contemporary British Theatre
The volume uses an interdisciplinary approach to examine how 21st-century British theatre increasingly intercuts dystopian and utopian elements to create innovative strategies for addressing current social and political concerns. In the case studies, a key role is given to the ways in which the selected plays use real and fictional spaces on stage and thereby manage to construct interactional spaces which the spectators are invited to share.
CDE STUDIES (GENERAL EDITOR: ANETTE PANKRATZ)
The book series is dedicated to contemporary anglophone playwrights and the analysis of the historical, political and aesthetic contexts of their work, thus seeking to advance the theoretical and methodological discourse on theatre and drama today.
