Synopsis

The French Theatre of Horror (Exeter Performance Studies)

Since the theatre closed its doors 40 years ago, the genre has been overlooked by critics and theatre historians.

This book considers the importance and influence of the Grand-Guignol within its social, cultural and historical contexts, and is the first attempt at a major evaluation of the genre as performance.
