Under the title of the English Stage Company the theatre's house actors and dramatists commissioned and produced some of the most influential plays in modern theatre history, including the works of Brenton, Churchill, Bond and Osborne. The story of the Royal Court is also the history of the contemporary stage. In this absorbing account of the theatre's history from 1956 to 1998, first published in 1999, Philip Roberts draws on previously unpublished archives in both public and private collections and a series of interviews with people prominent in the Court's life. The book also includes a Foreword by the former Director of the Royal Court, Max Stafford-Clark. The result is an intimate account of the working of the foremost house of modern drama and its relationships to the world of the theatre in Britain and abroad.Cambridge studies in modern theatre.The Royal Court Theatre & the Modern StageEnglish drama20th centuryHistory and criticismEnglish dramaHistory and criticism.792/.09421Roberts Philip1942-992684UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910780094203321The Royal Court Theatre and the modern stage2419567UNINA
