In studying performances of marriage in modern and contemporary
British and American drama, Clum highlights the fact that -
paradoxically - at a time when theatre was both popular
entertainment and high culture, many of the most commercially and
artistically successful plays about marriage were written by
homosexual men. Beginning with Oscar Wilde and focusing on some of
the most successful British and American playwrights of the past
century, including Somerset Maugham, Noel Coward, Terence Rattigan,
and Emlyn Williams in England and Clyde Fitch, George Kelly,
Tennessee Williams, William Inge, and Edward Albee in the US, The
Drama of Marriagelooks at how the plays they wrote about
heterosexual marriage continue to impact contemporary gay
playwrights and the depiction of marriage today.
