As a writer, director, actor and teacher he influenced theatre in Australia for thirty years. Enright wrote more than fifty plays for the stage, film, television and radio, translated and adapted more, and taught acting to students in varied settings, both in Australia and the United States. His writing repertoire included comedy, social realism, farce, fantasy and the musical. In addition to his prodigious contribution to all of these genres, he was a passionate advocate for the actor and the theatre in contemporary society. In this volume Anne Pender and Susan Lever present a set of essays and recollections about Nick Enright?s work for students, teachers and scholars. The book offers a comprehensive study of Enright?s writing for theatre, film and television. Scholars, acting teachers and theatre directors have contributed to this work each illuminating an aspect of Enright?s remarkable career. The discussions cover interpretations of Enright?s scripts and productions, detailed analysis of his directing style, substantial background and analysis of his writing for musicals, as well as accounts of his specific approach to acting and to adaptation across genres. The essays and recollections included in this book will inspire theatre practitioners as well as scholars. Most importantly, this book will inform and enlighten students and teachers both at high school and university about an exceptional career in the theatre. 410 0$aAustralian playwrights ;$vmonograph no. 12. 606 $aAustralian drama$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAustralian drama$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a822.914 701 $aLever$b Susan$f1950-$0527727 701 $aPender$b Anne$f1962-$0893402 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453920903321 996 $aNick Enright$91995798 997 $aUNINA
