Frontline Drama 5 - Bush Theatre Book (Paperback, Reissue)

"The West End may be starved of new work, but real drama flourishes at the Bush."-Michael Billington

"I tell my writers that their plays will be better produced at the Bush than any theatre in Britain."-Peggy Ramsay

This special volume of frontline drama, edited by Mike Bradwell, celebrates the twenty-fifth anniversary of London's Bush Theatre, one of Britain's most vibrant fringe theatres and internationally celebrated as a home for new writing. Since 1972, the Bush has premiered plays by over 200 new writers and maintains a unique record in discovering and nurturing the leading playwrights of the future.

Included are two new plays, Mackerel Sky by Hilary Fannin and Caravan by Helen Blakeman, produced as part of the Bush's anniversary season, and contributions by Bush writers, actors, and directors, including Snoo Wilson, Robert Holman, Alan Plater, Conor McPherson, Kevin Elyot, Dominic Dromgoole, Catherine Johnson, Simon Callow, Victoria Wood, Jonathan Harvey, David Edgar, Philip Ridley, and many more which together form a living history of a vital period of contemporary British drama.
