Synopsis
This authoritative A-Z of contemporary theatre contains more than 500 entries on playwrights and plays, from Aristophanes to Ravenhill, from The Alchemist to The Talking Cure.

Its unique cross-referencing system directs the reader to other authors and dramas that tackle similar subjects. Stimulating, informative and up-to-date, this is an essential reference for anyone interested in drama.
