Trends in British Drama since 1960s

British theatre after 1960 became a laboratory for political anger, formal experiment, and a rethinking of what a stage can even do — this course traces that arc from the kitchen-sink generation through Churchill and Kane to postdramatic and digital-era work like Blast Theory. You'll be doing close readings of individual plays alongside performance and adaptation history, with the workload split across a take-home midterm, a take-home final, presentations, and term papers rather than timed exams. It's a senior-level literature elective, so the payoff is learning to read drama as a live response to Britain's shifting politics, identity debates, and media landscape, not just as text on a page.
