Dramatic Realism, since its birth in the hectic late years of the
nineteenth century, gave theatrical and thematic energy to the
interaction between a play's text and the way that it looked on the
stage. Characters began to find themselves in rooms and settings
that played an active and changing role in the drama, and their
dialogue and reactions evolved in time with these changes. As life
itself became more elaborate during the 20th Century, so these
rooms were invaded and then defined by the outside world. Fred
Miller Robinson's enjoyable and stimulating essays on this enduring
genre tackle the dreams and anxieties of the middles classes of the
Industrial Revolution - dreams of domestic comfort and refuge, and
anxieties about how entrapping that comfort could be. Moving from
Ibsen to Chekhov and onwards into later plays in which the reality
of 'Realism' comes under scrutiny, this is a book to dip into
before a performance or to study during a class.
