About the Book

Despite some of the greatist playwrights such as Tom Stoppard, Mark Ravenhill, Tennessee Williams and Harold Pinter having written a plethora of one-act plays, individual plays are notoriously difficult to source, often having less exposure than the writers' longer plays. Since its publication in 2006, The One-Act Play Companion has remained a unique book, surveying the work of over 250 one-act playwrights in an illuminating A-Z guide. The book is a dip-in resource providing details of one-act plays and playwrights in a lively and accessible format. In addition to this directory, the book offers a brief history of the one-act play, guidance on performing and staging, as well as essential contact information. This new edition would take into account more recent movements in theatre and new writers that have emerged since the book's original publication in 2006.
