Modern plays are strikingly diverse and, as a result, any attempt
to locate an underlying unity between them encounters difficulties:
to focus on what they have in common is often to overlook what is
of primary importance in particular plays; to focus on their
differences is to note the novelty of the plays without increasing
their accessibility. In this study, first published in 1985, Austin
E. Quigley takes as his paradigm case the relationship between the
world of the stage and the world of the audience, and explores
various modes of communication between domains. He asks how changes
in the structure of the drama relate to changes in the structure of
the theatre, and changes in the role of the audience. Detailed
interpretations of plays by Pinero, Ibsen, Strindberg, Brecht,
Ionesco, Beckett and Pinter question principles about the modern
theatre and establish links between drama structure and theatre
structure, theme, and performance space.
