Katharine Brisbane
Why we like it
"'Plays Of The 70s' edited by Katharine Brisbane highlights the groundbreaking works of a transformative era in theatre, reflecting on the social upheaval and activism of the time."
From: Political Theatre & Social Justice PlaysIn this volume, covering 1975--1977, years of consolidation for some, disappointment for others, the authors take stock of the progress of reform.
In 'Crossfires', a critique of feminism; in 'The Christian Brothers' a satire of Catholic education; in 'A Happy and Holy Occasion', a portrait of Irish obsequiousness and superstition; and 'Inner Voices', allegory of the ignorant in power, the plays express their writers' disillusion with the past and impatience for reconsideration.
Plays Of The 70s is a Australian & New Zealand play written by Katharine Brisbane (Editor) and published by Currency Press in Sydney (1998).
