This volume is the first to offer a comprehensive critical examination of the intersections between contemporary ethical thought and post-1989 British playwriting. Its coverage of a large number of plays and playwrights, international range of contributors and original argumentation make it a key point of reference for students and researchers.

This exciting book uniquely combines interviews with scholars and practitioners in theatre studies to look at what most people feel is a pivotal moment of British theatre--the 1990s. Featuring interviews with key names in the field (including Max Stafford-Clark, Mark Ravenhill, Michael Billington, Dan Rebellato and Aleks Sierz), and with a particular focus on "in-yer-face theatre," this volume will be essential reading for all students and scholars of contemporary British theatre, as well as theatregoers and practitioners.
