The Artist as a Dramatic Character
This book examines the use of the artist as a veneer to criticise political ruling parties. Using previously unused primary sources, including interviews with three playwrights, it explores this key role over three decades with reference to artists from the Middle East.
In a post-truth age, this book provides an ethical critique of contemporary British drama. Focusing on the innovative work of playwrights David Greig, Marina Carr, and Martin Crimp, it offers a vital contribution to theatre studies and Ethical Criticism.
