"A Companion to Modern British and Irish Drama 1880-2005 is a much needed intervention in the field, with its substantial coverage of Irish drama and significant essays on the work of women playwrights, as well as solid coverage of the usual suspects. It is profitably innovative in terms of both structure and content. Many volumes with such a coverage remit fail to ever go much beyond the standard canonical playwrights and texts...a ‘must buy’ for all University libraries...this is a volume which will have currency for years to come." New Theatre Quarterly
"Luckhurst argues for a reassessment of 'Englishness,' and, accordingly, this companion emphasizes postcolonial and feminist agendas and questions the dominance of urban locales and certain theatrical institutions...combined, the essays provide a necessary reassessment of British and Irish drama." Choice
“There is so much valuable material in the book that it is sure to be frequently read and consulted.”
