Staging Beckett in Ireland and Northern Ireland (Hardcover)

This is the first full-length study to focus on the staging of
Samuel Beckett's drama in Ireland and Northern Ireland. Beckett's
relationship with his native land was a complex one, but the
importance of his drama as a creative force both historically and
in contemporary practice in Ireland and Northern Ireland cannot be
underestimated. Drawing on previously unpublished archival
materials and re-examining familiar narratives, this volume traces
the history of Beckett's drama at Dublin's Abbey and Gate Theatres
as well as bringing to light unexamined and little-known
productions such as those performed in the Irish language, Druid
Theatre Company's productions, and those of Dublin's Focus Theatre.
Leading scholars in Beckett studies and in Irish drama, including
Anna McMullan and Anthony Roche, and renowned interpreters of
Beckett's dramatic work such as Barry McGovern, explore Beckett's
drama within the context of Irish creative theatrical practice and
heritage, and analyse its legacies. As with its companion volume,
Staging Beckett in Great Britain, production analyses are
underpinned by a consideration of the political, economic and
cultural contexts. Readers are invited to experience Beckett's
drama as resonating in new ways, through theatre practice, against
the complex and connected histories of Ireland, north and south.
