authoritative guide to the work of twenty-five playwrights from the
last 50 years whose work has helped to shape and define Irish
theatre. Written by a team of international scholars, it provides
an illuminating survey and analysis of each writer's plays and will
be invaluable to anyone interested in, studying or teaching

emerged in the 1990s and who include Martin McDonagh, Marina Carr,
Emma Donoghue and Mark O'Rowe. Each essay features: a biographical
sketch and introduction to the playwright a discussion of their
most important plays an analysis of their stylistic and thematic
traits, the critical reception and their place in the discourses of
Irish theatre a bibliography of texts and critical material With a
total of 190 plays discussed in detail, over half of which were
written during the 1990s and 2000s, The Methuen Drama Guide to
Contemporary Irish Playwrights is unrivalled in its study of recent
plays and playwrights.
