This third book in a new series of magazine-style reviews of the performing arts, presents an introduction to the writers who are helping to shape the future of the British theatre. Ranging from Sarah Kane's controversial Blasted to Patrick Marber's humorous Dealer's Choice, from Jonathan Harvey's Beautiful Thing to the intense emotion of Philip Ridley's Apocalyptica, this collection presents extracts from some 20 texts. Together they present a portrait of an emergent generation of playwrights, the country they live in and the worlds which they create on stage.
