Examining the ways in which contemporary Western theatre protests
against the 'War on Terror', this book analyses six twenty-first
century plays that respond to the post-9/11 military operations in
Afghanistan, Iraq and Palestine. The plays are written by some of
the most significant writers of this century and the last including
Elfriede Jelinek, Caryl Churchill, Helene Cixous and Tony Kushner.
Anti-war Theatre After Brecht grapples with the problem of how to
make theatre that protests the policies of democratically elected
Western governments in a post-Marxist era. It shows how the
Internet has become a key tool for disseminating anti-war play
texts and how online social media forums are changing traditional
dramatic aesthetics and broadening opportunities for spectator
access, engagement and interaction with a work and the political
alternatives it puts forward.
