Trade Review
Sierz's fluent, up-to-date new study is further proof that he is one of British theater's leading critics. * André Naffis-Sahely, Times Literary Supplement *
As a theatre studies teacher, this book is a relative breath of fresh air and may make you exclaim: 'Yes at last, someone is writing about contemporary plays, playwrights and performances!'...The beauty of this book is that it gives some of the theory behind the shift in the writing: giving us a social, cultural and political context...In order to understand the context behind new writing, this book is a must read! * Teaching Drama *
