It is a fact that today's British stages resound with powerfully
innovative voices and that, very often, these voices have been
those of young women playwrights. This collection of essays gives
visibility and pride of place to these fascinating voices by
exploring the vitality, inventiveness and particularly strong
relevance of these poetics. These women playwrights sometimes
invent radically new forms and sometimes experiment with
conventional ones in fresh and unexpected ways, as for example when
they re-energize naturalism and provide it with new missions. The
plays that are addressed are all concerned with the necessity to
grasp the complexity of the contemporary world and to further
investigate what it means to be human. Intimate or epic, and
sometimes both at once, visionary or closer to everyday life, these
plays approach the contemporary world through a multitude of prisms
- historical, scientific, political and poetic - and open different
and visionary perspectives.
