In diaries covering the period of his artistic directorship of the
Abbey. Ben Barnes offers a frank, honest, and probing account of a
much commented upon and controversial period in the history of the
national theatre. These diaries also provide fascinating personal
insights into the day to day pressures, joys, and frustrations of
running one of Ireland's most iconic institutions. For over a
century now the Abbey has conducted its love/hate relationship with
the Irish public and the wider international audience, and in Plays
and Controversies Ben Barnes illuminates his own eventful chapter
in that absorbing story. Barnes addresses a moment in Irish
cultural history which stands as a many-sided cautionary tale. It
is the tale of an embattled man, a courageous man, who dares to
borrow Yeats' title because he found himself for a time in similar
circumstances running the national theatre albeit in altogether
different conditions. This book is an important historical record
of a recent tumultuous period at the Abbey Theatre.
