Jez Butterworth is the most critically acclaimed and commercially
successful new British dramatist of the 21st century: his acclaimed
play "Jerusalem "has had extended runs in the West End and on
Broadway. This book is the first to examine all of Butterworth's
writings for stage and film and to identify how and why his work
appeals so widely and profoundly. It contains interviews with those
who have worked on Butterworth's plays in production, and examines
the way that he weaves suspenseful stories of eccentric outsiders,
whose adventures echo widespread contemporary social anxieties, and
involve surprising expressions of both violence and generosity.
This book reveals how Butterworth unearths the strange forms of
wildness and defiance lurking in the depths and edges of England:
where unpredictable outbursts of wry and bawdy humour highlight the
poignant intensity of life; and characters discover links between
their haunting but ominous past and the uncertainties of the
present, to create a meaningful future. This is a clear, detailed
primary source of reference for a new generation of theatre
audiences, practitioners and directors who wish to explore the work
of this seminal dramatist.
