This collection brings together some of the best and most
frequently performed plays by John Arden and Margaretta D'Arcy
whose collaboration stems from the political years of the Sixties
The Business of Good Government is a nativity play which develops a
sense of a disappearing community; Ars Longa Vita Brevis is
composed out of children's games and The Royal Pardon tells the
story of the adventures of a group of strolling players who fall in
with a deserter from the war in Flanders. Other plays in this
collection such as Little Gray Home in the West and The Vandaleur's
Folly arise from the highly charged political arena of the 1970s in
Ireland.Arden and D'Arcy have been consistently interested in using
drama to extend the very boundaries of national identity and human
freedom.
