Winner of the Society for Theatre Research Book Prize - 2016 This
is the final volume in a new paperback edition of Steve Nicholson's
definitive four-volume survey of British theatre censorship from
1900-1968, based on previously undocumented material, covering the
period 1960-1968. This brings to its conclusion the first
comprehensive research on the Lord Chamberlain's Correspondence
Archives for the 20th century. The 1960s was a significant decade
in social and political spheres in Britain, especially in the
theatre. As certainties shifted and social divisions widened, a new
generation of theatre makers arrived, ready to sweep away
yesterday's conventions and challenge the establishment. Analysis
exposes the political and cultural implications of a powerful elite
exerting pressure in an attempt to preserve the veneer of a polite,
unquestioning society. This new edition includes a contextualising
timeline for those readers who are unfamiliar with the period, and
a new preface.
