This collection of essays investigates the way Africa has been
portrayed on the London stage from the 1950s to the present. It
focuses on whether — and, if so, to what extent — the Africa
that emerges from the London scene is subject to stereotype, and/or
in which ways the reception of audiences and critics have
contributed to an understanding of the continent and its arts. The
collection, divided into two parts, brings together
well-established academics and emerging scholars, as well as
playwrights, directors and performers currently active in London.
With a focus on Wole Soyinka, Athol Fugard, Bola Agbaje, Biyi
Bandele, and Dipo Agboluaje, amongst others, the volume examines
the work of key companies such as Tiata Fahodzi and Talawa, as well
as newer companies Two Gents, Iroko Theatre and Spora Stories.
Interviews with Rotimi Babatunde, Ade Solanke and Dipo Agboluaje on
the contemporary London scene are also included.
