About Churchill

In About Churchill, Philip Roberts presents not only an analysis of Caryl Churchill’s published work, but also an account of eleven of her unpublished pieces. Alongside a survey of the plays, the book includes comment from directors, actors, designers, dancers, a choreographer and a composer, and the book demonstrates her unceasing experimentation and moral courage over a period of more than forty years.‘The strong point of the books in this series is the distinctive voices of the writers, their attitudes and how these are reflected in their plays. Smart chronologies and brief annotated bibliographies give the books a student-friendly feel, and all are readable and jargon-free.’Aleks Sierz, Times Higher Education SupplementTitles in the series:About BeckettAbout ChurchillAbout FrielAbout HareAbout O’CaseyAbout PinterAbout Stoppard
