How has the media, beginning with the Persian Gulf War, altered
political analysis and how has this alteration in turn affected
socially-critical art? Jeanne Colleran examines more than forty
plays, most of which were written in direct response to the
emergent New World Order and the subsequent 1991 war in Iraq as
well as to the 9/11 attacks and the retaliatory actions in Iraq and
Afghanistan. These works are drawn primarily from the British and
American stage - the principal partners in these conflicts. The
writers include prominent figures (Harold Pinter, Caryl Churchill,
Sam Shepard, Tony Kushner, David Hare, Trevor Griffiths, Naomi
Wallace, and Neil LaBute), work by theatre groups and artistic
directors (San Francisco Mime Troupe, Nicolas Kent and the Tricycle
Theatre, and Alan Buchman and Culture Project), and plays by
emerging playwrights and by writers who work primarily as
journalists or in other media (Anne Nelson, Lawrence Wright, George
Packer, Robin Soans, and others).
