£12.99
The Forest and the Field is a polemical
thinking-through of the whole concept
of theatre as a ‘space’, and a politically
motivated exploration of how, and where,
that theatrical space meets the real world
that surrounds and suffuses it.
The book begins by demolishing the notion
of the ‘empty space’ and drawing careful
and suggestive distinctions between ‘space’
and ‘place’. It moves on to consider how the
body – of the actor, or of the spectator – is
read within the theatrical encounter, and
how meaning is created in the turbulent
movement of signs between performer
and audience. Finally it interrogates the
wider relationship between theatre and
its ‘outside’, culminating in an attempt to
answer the familiar question of whether
theatre can change the world – and, if it
can, how it might.
‘British theatre’s greatest
maverick talent.’

Suspect Culture was Scotland’s leading
experimental theatre company between
1993 and 2009. Based in Glasgow, it
was formed of a core group of associate
artists who collaborated in making
groundbreaking, high-quality new work
which gained an international reputation.
Over the course of its 16-year history the
company worked with some of the most
respected artists and organizations in
the UK and internationally, and made
a significant contribution to the British
theatre scene of the 1990s and early
2000s. Described by Scotland on Sunday
as ‘Scottish theatre’s major creative
powerhouse’ and by The Times as ‘the most
adventurous, most in-tune-with-the-times
theatre company in Britain’, Suspect Culture
have had a quietly decisive impact on British
theatre.
This book surveys the company’s history
and ideas and includes contributions
from many of the company’s significant
members including David Greig, cofounder, writer and dramaturg with Suspect
Culture; Graham Eatough, co-founder and
Artistic Director; and the perspective of the
company from Brazilian director and writer
Mauricio Paroni de Castro, one of Suspect
Culture’s many international associates.
Also included here are the previously
unpublished playtexts of three of its most
celebrated shows, Timeless, Mainstream and
Lament (all created by the company with text
by David Greig).

Plays which use people’s actual words
as the basis for their drama are not a
new phenomenon. But from the stages
of national theatres to fringe venues and
universities everywhere, ‘verbatim’ theatre,
as it has come to be known, is currently
enjoying unprecedented attention and
success. It has also attracted high-profile
criticism and impassioned debate. In these
wide-ranging essays and interviews, six
leading dramatists describe their varying
approaches to verbatim, examine the
strengths and weaknesses of its techniques
and explore the reasons for its current
popularity. They discuss frankly the unique
opportunities and ethical dilemmas that arise
when portraying real people on stage, and
consider some of the criticisms levelled at this
controversial documentary form.

Shakespeare tells the actor when to go fast
and when to go slow; when to pause, when to
come in on cue; when to accent a word. His
text is full of such clues; he heard the lines as he
wrote them. Shakespeare’s Advice to the Players
makes watching or reading Shakespeare a richer
experience for us all.
This is a new edition for a new generation –
compact and concise with the facts, the way
modern students and actors need it. The pay-off
of the book according to Sir Peter is simple – it
will make you a better actor!

will flock to learn from him…passionate,
entertaining… Indisputably wise and true…
Wonderfully illuminating.’ Telegraph
‘As fascinating to readers as it is to actors.’

‘Immensely engaging… There will be many
a director, performer and teacher who will
only be too grateful to him in the future.’
Directors Guild of Great Britain
‘This is the most fabulously hybrid book –
part actor’s handbook, part memoir – what
is most inspiring is Hall’s conviction that
form can be as exciting as feeling. Acting
in this way is more than just listening
to Shakespeare – it is responding to
Shakespeare’s linear needs.’ Observer

FROM WORD TO PLAY: a

Foreword by Michael Boyd, former Artistic
Director of the RSC
PB9781840026016
£14.99
‘There is a mystery in every play that is written, no
matter whether classical and poetic or modern
and demotic, and it is the sound and the rhythm
of the writing which take us there.’
Cicely Berry, the Royal Shakespeare Company’s
Voice Director, has been working alongside some
of Britain’s greatest actors and directors for over
fifty years and is widely regarded as one of the
most significant voice teachers in the world.
www.oberonbooks.com
From Word to Play draws on Cicely’s extensive
experience of working with theatre companies
in Britain and throughout the world. It is her
manifesto for a return to the words themselves:
for moving away from an over-conceptualised,
over-literal view of language and rediscovering
the meaning in its sounds and rhythms. At the
heart of this book is a concise, practical guide for
directors in rehearsal, setting out work strategies
that help bring out both the shape and the details
within all kinds of text – whether verse or prose,
seventeenth-century or contemporary.
‘Cicely Berry has based her work on the
conviction that while all is present in nature
our natural instincts have been crippled
from birth by many processes – by the
conditioning, in fact, of a warped society.
So an actor needs precise exercise and
clear understanding to liberate his hidden
possibilities and to learn the hard task of
being true to “the instinct of the moment”.’

‘Berkoff: Brutal, compassionate, brilliant.
Examines the actor’s soul with a precision
that is acutely painful and appallingly
funny.’ Richard E. Grant
‘Steven Berkoff is different. His Tales of
an Actor speak with a bracing honesty of
experience in the theatre with which all
actors are familiar, but which few have
dared to articulate. He is a pioneer. His
views are both caustic and invigorating… I
hope they will be read by anyone interested
in the theatre and in the work of actors.’
Paul Scofield
‘Steven Berkoff’s funny and touching Tales of
an Actor strikes one with all the terrors and
stupidity and hilarity with which we combat
our ill-chosen, foolish way of life.’
Alec McCowen
Harry is a dedicated actor, often out of work,
rejected and desperate for opportunities to
practise his art. Brief moments of success only
serve to increase his thirst for fulfilment. In these
moving, sometimes harrowing short stories
Steven Berkoff tears the skin off the acting
profession to reveal the raw, bleeding reality of
the actor’s everyday life.

Eleven experienced actors who have made
a living, a life, in theatre, television and
film, share their process, comment on their
experiences and consider their role as theatre
artists within the broader spectrum of Art
and Culture. Contributors, who have worked
across a range of forms from mainstream
theatre to experimental performance practice,
include: Claire Price, Ruairi Conaghan,
Mojisola Adebayo, Tim Crouch, Olwen
Fouéré, Gerrard McArthur, Gabriel Gawin,
Selina Cadell, Simon Russell Beale, Paterson
Joseph and Jim Norton.
A book that actors can mine for tips on
craftsmanship and the business. A book that
reveals to directors which approaches enable
actors and which block them. A book that calls
the UK industry to attention: actors should be
embraced as primary creators along with the
writer, director and designer of any production.
‘The book is a rare creature, offering
privileged and disarmingly frank
encounters… It will engage anyone
involved in or in love with theatre
– practitioners, critics, customers,
administrators, agents, teachers, students.’
Irish Theatre
‘An excellent exposé of the trials and
tribulations, joys and insecurities of a life on
the stage.’ British Theatre Guide
‘Plenty of tips here both on actor
craftsmanship and on how the industry
works.’ The Stage
‘This is a book about the precious
dedication that makes this profession
ancient and new. A clutch of wonderful
minds provoked, represent the important
ongoing conversation about stories, skill
and life. It’s a treat.’ Fiona Shaw

Monologues are an essential part of every actor’s toolkit. Actors are required to perform
monologues regularly throughout their career: preparing for drama school entry, showcasing
skills for agents or auditioning for a role. Following on from the bestselling first volumes
(2008), these new books showcase selected monologues from some of the finest modern
plays by some of today’s leading contemporary playwrights, published in the last five
years, including Dennis Kelly, John Logan, Chris Goode, Anya Reiss, Laura Wade, Mojisola
Adebayo, Will Eno, Natasha Langridge, among others.
These monologues contain a diverse range of quirky and memorable characters that cross
cultural and historical boundaries. The pieces are helpfully organised into age-specific
groups: ‘Teens’, ‘Twenties’, ‘Thirties’ and ‘Forties plus’.
‘Anyone applying to train, preparing a showcase or auditioning for a job needs a fund of
good sparky monologues, and they can be quite difficult to find. So I think many people
are going to be grateful to voice coach Catherine Weate who has assembled and edited
two further books of modern monologues.’ The Stage
‘…there is sufficient scope here for anyone in search of the piece to impress…
I’d highly recommend these books.’ Teaching Drama on previous volumes

Although his mainstream career has
recently included major work for the RSC
and the National, the five new pieces
collected here show just how close
playwright and director Neil Bartlett has
stayed to the radical queer cultural roots
that first brought him to prominence in
the early 1980s. Commissioned to be
performed in spaces as diverse as South
London’s notorious Vauxhall Tavern,
Brighton’s Theatre Royal and the pulpit
of Westminster Abbey, these hit-and-run
dramatic monologues bring all of his
trademark wit and passion to bear on the
issues that run throughout his work – the
power of love, and the necessity for anger.
Together, they make up a trenchantly
personal take on what it feels like to have
spent nearly thirty years standing up and
speaking one’s mind.

The collection also includes his 2011
adaptation of Oscar Wilde’s The
Remarkable Rocket, which uses the
diamond-sharp text of one of Wilde’s
children’s stories as the springboard for a
haunting meditation on the enduring power
of Wilde to inspire, dazzle and move.
This new collection is vivid, fierce and
tender, with five provocative and highly
actable new works from one of British
theatre’s most idiosyncratic voices.

I, Shakespeare brings together Tim
Crouch’s take on four Shakespeare classics:
Twelfth Night, Macbeth, The Tempest and
A Midsummer Night’s Dream. These solo
pieces are written for younger audiences
but their originality and strength make them
suitable for any age.
Each play in this collection combines
the need to tell Shakespeare’s primary
story with an opportunity for the
secondary characters to finally have
their say – Malvolio, Banquo, Caliban
and Peaseblossom. Each play displays a
formal inventiveness and a philosophical
playfulness that make them stand alone as
brilliant examples of contemporary theatre.
‘If only the plays were taught like this
in schools, nobody would ever say
Shakespeare was boring.’
Guardian
‘Crouch [is] making a tradition of solo shows
in which Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are
Dead-like, he elaborates on the late, great
Will’s minor characters… delightful.’
Huffington Post
‘Funny, fresh, vibrant and often moving... A
drama teacher might use one of these plays
– or part of one – as a piece of solo practical
work for GCSE or A level... They have
potential for English & PSHE lessons too.’

about two foster brothers

Matthew and Muhammed

capitalism and exploitation,
as well as sectarianism and
homophobia in modern-day
Nigeria.
‘Alights like an elegant
butterfly on a great

homophobia, sectarianism
and the demands of

easy intimacy, and the story
tumbles out with a low-key
virtuosity, the words falling
skittishly over each other.’

‘Full of arresting images
that create a hybrid of

Shirley is a teenage boy

school. Nothing makes
much sense to him, and
his heart belongs to a
classmate who barely knows
he exists. Wound Man is an

sprung from the pages of a
medieval medical textbook,
with an alarming assortment
of weapons sticking out
from every part of his body.
Wound Man has just moved
into a house on Shirley’s

to have a vacancy for a
teenage sidekick... A funny

mean girls, misdirected kisses

Autobiographer
Melanie Wilson
Howard Barker is an internationally renowned dramatist, whose first plays
were performed at the Royal Court and by the Royal Shakespeare Company.
Since 1992 his work has been presented by his own company The Wrestling
School. Barker’s theatre is characterized by its poetic, non-naturalistic form
and inhabits worlds of contradiction, suffering and sexual passion. Barker is
also a poet and theorist of theatre, whose ‘Theatre of Catastrophe’ defines
a new form of tragedy for our times.

A STYLE AND ITS

Howard Barker /
Eduardo Houth
PB9781840027181
E9781849433006
£14.00
Writing of himself in the
third person and in the
historic tense, Barker's
alter-ego Eduardo Houth
achieves a fluency and
an uncommon measure
of objectivity, though
objectivity is scarcely the
sole intention. The result
is a unique exercise in
self-description, partisan
but without the shrill selfjustification so common
in a mere autobiography.
Barker/Houth's A Style
and its Origins is very
much a literary creation;
it is also a totally original
document and a rich history
of the dramatist and his
aesthetic.
THEATRE OF
CATASTROPHE:
NEW ESSAYS ON
HOWARD BARKER
Edited by Karoline
Gritzner and David Ian
Rabey
HB 9781840026948
£30.00
A collection of fifteen essays
on the style, language and
vision of one of Britain’s
most influential and
controversial playwrights.
Focusing on different aspects
of what Barker has called
the Theatre of Catastrophe,
an international range of
academics offer illuminating
interpretations of his work.
Includes analyses of the
political, moral and historical
aspects of his writing, its
poetry and eroticism, its
depiction of the figure of the
artist, and Barker’s writing in
performance.

£9.99
Belarus Free Theatre was
founded in 2005 in Europe’s
last surviving dictatorship
and every member of the
company has, at one time or
another, been imprisoned,
threatened or mistreated by
the authorities, or they live
in fear for their safety. They
have all lost their jobs. In
retaliation, they defiantly
produce, devise and perform
award-winning plays with the
support of artists around the
world. This volume presents
two of the Company’s
most recent plays, Trash
Cuisine and Minsk 2011
(A Reply to Kathy Acker),
performed to much acclaim
around the world. It is the
first publication in a new
partnership between Belarus
Free Theatre and Oberon
Books which we hope will
help raise the profile of one
of the world’s bravest and
boldest theatre companies
working in extraordinary

www.oberonbooks.com
Since his debut in 2003
Agboluaje has become one
of the most prolific of the third
generation of Black British
playwrights. These plays
demonstrate Agboluaje’s
versatility and ability to write
plays that transcend African
and British cultures.
‘[These] plays reveal
distinguishing characteristics
that have come to define
Agboluaje’s dramaturgy…
an over-arching concern for
interrogating the impacts
of macro conditions on
individuals and sections of
British society alike, in other
words, using the microscopic
as point and canvas from
which to interrogate the
forces and conditions that
shape relations at all levels.’
Dr Victor I. Ukaegbu
‘An exciting, vital new voice’
Time Out
‘Agboluaje writes with a
sharp, satiric eye.’ Guardian
‘Satirical yet sympathetic,
brutal yet beautifully

In a writing career spanning
60 years, Ben Travers is
regarded as the master
of the ‘Aldwych Farces’.
Published at a time when
there is a renewed interest
in and appreciation of
farce, the four plays in this
collection are representative
of Travers’ work at its best
and most characteristic.
This collection includes the
classic farces Rookery Nook,
Thark, Plunder and The Bed
Before Yesterday.

E9781849437776
£9.99
Following on from the
great success of Pontac’s
Shakespeare parody
collection Codpieces, comes
a collection of three more
plays, each inspired by the
work of other playwrights.
These plays are comedies
about high culture: Chekhov
in the first; Wagner in the
second; and several revered
authors – as well as the
world of writers’ workshops
– in the third.
‘Perry may be from
California – indeed from
Tinseltown itself, and may
have a name like an early
twentieth-century car, but
his style is English to the
‘Cor’. He writes comfortably
in iambic pentameter,
sweeping Wagnerian
phrases or heightened
nineteenth-century prose.
He’s delighted by his own
naughtiness and he makes
a gift to the reader of that
delight. Roll it from your
eyes to your tongue, like
tears, and relish, as I do, the
ever-so fruity yet slightly salty
content.’ Maureen Lipman

This volume of Howard
Barker’s plays explores
the tragic form defined
by Barker as Theatre of
Catastrophe. Victory, set
in the English Civil War,
follows the ethical voyage
of a widow; The Europeans
takes the Siege of Vienna
as the background for a
young woman’s insistence
on her right to her own
identity; and Scenes from
an Execution shows an
independent artist’s struggle
against the Venetian
state. The Possibilities are
disturbing short plays set in
various times and cultures.
‘Barker’s work remains
emotionally true, poetic
psychologically and full of
startling insights.’
The Arts Desk
‘Shows Barker’s poetic
talent at its most
disciplined.’
Guardian
‘[These plays] have
profoundly touched
audiences around the world,
and as [they] now become
accesible, through print, to
a greater number of people
– one feels the collective
dignity of our people rise
and make its claim.’
Archbishop Desmond Tutu

Features the plays Debris,
Osama the Hero, After the
End and Love and Money.
The four plays in this
first collection by Dennis
Kelly are linked by their
characters’ desperate need
to believe that there is more

worlds in which they find
themselves.

explosive history of Western
involvement in Afghanistan.

‘To be or not to be?’ may be
The Question, but it is not
the only one. Hamlet, Part
II answers a question about
Hamlet that has plagued
scholars, readers and playgoers for over four hundred
years: What happened
next? Prince Lear tackles
yet another conundrum:
What happened just
before the start of King
Lear, setting in motion the
improbable events of Act
I, scene 1? In Fatal Loins,
the question answered by
the play is directly posed in
the prologue: ‘If Juliet and
Romeo survive / Will their
eternal passion stay alive?’

Nantucket. 1851. Centre
of a whaling industry that
transformed blubber into
the oils and candles that
lit the world. It’s there that
a schoolmaster called
Ishmael arrives to ship on
a whale-boat. He enrols
under Ahab, Captain of
the Pequod – a man bent
on destroying the white
whale that lost him his leg.
Certain the destruction of
his nemesis will slake his
thirst, Ahab’s single-minded
pursuit of Moby-Dick
consumes Ishmael, the crew
and the Pequod itself.
The spirit and atmosphere
of Herman Melville’s
masterpiece – romantic,
ambiguous, characterful
and rich with allegory – is
captured on stage in this
new adaptation.
‘[a] bold and brilliant stage
adaptation… The script is
well crafted, turning the

Martha and Amie are old

off from family and friends.
With the present closing in

when 21-year-old Leo

the West Village apartment
where his feisty 91-year-old
grandmother Vera lives. She’s
an old Communist who lives
alone, he’s a latter-day hippie,

He has a son and he has
debt. The latter being a
direct result of the former.
And horses. Socrates has
an Academy. He teaches
students to question, think
for themselves. Streps has
an idea: Phiddy can go to
Socrates’ Academy and
learn how to talk himself
out of trouble! Will Socrates
reform the prodigal son?
Will the creditors come

And what about the singing

in which education and

Aristophanic comedy fused

Platonov is a man who is
loved by women. Despite
his best intentions he is
drawn into a series of
extra-marital affairs that all
hold the promise of escape
from the provincial Russian
reality where he and his
circle of friends are trapped.
Consumed by bitterness
and disappointment, they
attempt to fill the void in
their lives with sex and
vodka, blaming their fathers
for the mess they’ve been
left in. A brand-new version
of Chekhov’s Platonov, Sons
Without Fathers is funnier,
more brutal and more
wildly passionate than the
Chekhov we’ve come to

this band of disaffected
thirty-somethings – too old

too young to let go of their

It’s 1967 in Detroit. Motown
music is getting the party
started, and Chelle and her
brother Lank are making
ends meet by turning their
basement into an afterhours joint. But when a
mysterious woman finds
her way into their lives,
the siblings clash over
much more than the family
business. As their pent-up
feelings erupt, so does
their city, and they find
themselves caught in the
middle of the ‘67 riots.
‘Crackling with humor! Fire
up some Motown, get those
hips moving and everything
will work out fine.’

With his louche air and
a developed taste for
smoking, gambling, port
and women, it’s hard to
believe Cis Farringdon is
only fourteen. And that’s
because he isn’t. Agatha his
mother lopped five years
from her true age and
his when she married the
amiable Posket. High jinks
and high-spirited carousing
are at the heart of this
hilarious farce.
‘A Victorian corker
of a show.’
Daily Mail
‘The more Wildean lines
and jolts of wit mean The
Magistrate remains likeable

In 1997, a BAFTA awardwinning British film about
six out of work Sheffield
steelworkers with nothing
to lose took the world by
storm. And now they’re
back, live on stage, only for
them, it really has to be The
Full Monty. Simon Beaufoy,
the Oscar-winning writer
of the film, has now gone
back to Sheffield where
it all started to rediscover
the men, the women, the
heartache and the hilarity of
a city on the dole.
‘uproariously entertaining…
Every inch a whopping hit.’
The Telegraph
‘the Full Monty in more than
one sense. It’s a raucous and
touching piece of popular
theatre…this is a show with
a heart the size of Sheffield.
It’s a total blast.’

From Morning To Midnight
(1912), among the most
frequently performed
German Expressionist
works, charts the life of a
cashier who steals money
from the bank and flees
to Berlin. The un-named
protagonist’s bid to escape
his middle-class daily life
is ultimately frustrated.
It is a popular piece in
which Kaiser satirized the
cheapness and futility
of modern society. His
hero, a kind of machineage Everyman, searches
everywhere for some kind of
fulfillment – in commercial
sex, in salvationist religion
– but discovers through
a series of nightmarish
episodes that the world is
deceitful and illusory. In
the end, disillusioned and
pursued by the police, he
takes his own life.
A new version by Dennis
Kelly, to play at the
National Theatre in
November 2013, as part
of the National’s 50th
Anniversary Season.

Winner of the Evening

Disappearing Number
takes as its starting point
the story of one of the
most mysterious and
romantic mathematical
collaborations of all time.
A man mourns the loss of
his lover, a mathematician
mourns her own fate. A
businessman travels from
Los Angeles to Chennai
pursuing the future; a
physicist in CERN looks for it
too. The mathematician GH
Hardy seeks to comprehend
the ideas of the genius
Srinvasa Ramanujan in the
chilly English surroundings
of Cambridge during the
First World War. Ramanujan
looks to create some of the
most complex mathematical
patterns of all time.

Under the watchful gaze
of his young assistant and
the threatening presence
of a new generation of
artists, Mark Rothko takes
on his greatest challenge
yet: to create a definitive
work for an extraordinary
setting. A moving and
compelling account of
one of the greatest artists
of the twentieth century
whose struggle to accept his
riches and praise became
his ultimate undoing, Red
premiered at the Donmar
Warehouse, London in
December 2009. Red was
a 2010 Olivier Award
nominee for Best New
Play, and it subsequently
transferred to Broadway in
2010.

Acclaimed playwright Laura
Wade explores the lives
of the young, wealthy and
privileged. Are the high-jinks
of the tail-coated Riot Club
boys the last gasp of a dying
breed? In an oak-panelled
room in Oxford, ten young
bloods with cut-glass vowels
and deep pockets are
meeting, intent on restoring
their right to rule. Members of
an elite student dining society,
the boys are bunkering down
for a wild night of debauchery,
decadence and bloody good
wine. But this isn’t the last
huzzah: they’re planning a
takeover. Welcome to the Riot
Club.
‘Laura Wade’s depiction
of wealth and privilege is
savagely funny.’
Time Out
‘Disgracefully entertaining.’
The Telegraph
‘Wade’s writing sparkles
darkly with insight and wit…
Posh’s analysis of the latent
violence of class antagonism
is satirical, grimly hilarious
and richly symbolic – it’s a
terrific piece of new writing.’

Faust: Parts I
and II
Goethe
Translated by Robert
David MacDonald
PB9781870259118
E9781849437431
£9.99
The power and magic of the
Faust story, the man who, in a
pact with the Devil, trades his
soul in return for a period of
total knowledge and absolute
power, is one of the most
potent of all European myths.
Robert David MacDonald’s
translation of Faust, used
in acclaimed productions
in Scotland (Glasgow
Citizens) and England (Lyric
Hammersmith), offers access
to the play in the English
language for readers and
playgoers alike and opens up

Jean Racine is the greatest
tragedian of the French
seventeenth century.
Britannicus is set in the court of
the young Emperor Nero, and
in an atmosphere seething with
erotic tension, documents the
power-struggles surrounding
the birth of a legendary
despot. Berenice probes the
hearts of two lovers as they
are torn apart amidst the
splendours of Imperial Rome,
and in Phedra, a woman
betrayed by her own desires
descends into a personal hell
of shame, guilt and remorse.
These classic versions, by
two of the country’s most
distinguished directortranslators, offer blisteringly
effective poetry, urgent plotting
and powerhouse roles for both
actors and actresses.

These two tragedies, written at
the peak of Schiller’s career as
a dramatist, contain his most
telling, and touching, portrayals
of women. His heroines are
propelled, by birth or a sense
of divine mission, into exalted
political positions, where their
qualities as human beings, and
particularly as women, are put
to the severest tests, from which
they emerge triumphant, but
doomed. Schiller’s breadth of
sentiment, combined with his
consummate stagecraft, and
Shakespearean mastery of
verse and nobility of language,
ensure his position as
Germany’s greatest dramatist,
and these translations,
prepared for, and performed
by, Glasgow’s Citizens Theatre,
should go far to ensure his long
overdue acceptance in Britain
as a master of the European
Theatre.

ANTIGONE
PB9781840021363
TARTUFFE
£9.99
Thebes is under attack.
In a bloody battle outside
the city’s gates, the sons
of Oedipus fight to the
death. King Creon issues an
edict: Eteocles, who nobly
defended Thebes against
his brother and the invading
army, is to be buried a hero;
the body of his treacherous
brother must be left to rot.
Antigone and her uncle are
locked in conflict. With no
burial rites, Antigone knows
that her brother Polynices’
soul will be denied passage
to the underworld and the
gods will be offended. As
the new king, Creon cannot
ignore her actions – her
defiance is a matter of
national security.
‘Every line of Donnellan’s
version rings out loud and
clear…it comes across both
as stinging dialectic and as
a tragic study in the denial
of nature.’

with pantomime piety
and counterfeit zeal. So
comprehensively has he
hoodwinked Orgon that
he looks set to succeed
in driving away the son,
marrying the daughter,
seducing the wife and
imprisoning Orgon.
‘Much of the credit for the
evening’s success belongs to
Bolt’s superb translation.’
Guardian
‘Bolt’s irreverent, colloquial
translation, in neat,
octosyllabic rhyming
couplets, is blessed with a
filthy wit.’

Dionysus, the god of wine

to his native land to take
revenge on the puritanical
Pentheus who refuses to
recognise him of his rites.
Remorselessly, savagely and
with black humour, the god
drives Pentheus and all the
city to their shocking fate.
‘It draws on the
contemporary vernacular
to ripping, rollicking,
rumbustious effect...and
[Teevan] has given us a
piece of theatre that is
wonderfully robust, resolute
and resonant.’
Paul Muldoon
This version was specially

Schiller
Version by Peter Oswald
Molière
Translated by Ranjit Bolt
Edmond Rostand
Translated by Ranjit Bolt
Schiller’s play of 1800
pits Mary Queen of Scots
against her rival Elizabeth
of England. The meeting
never happened, but
Goethe claimed ‘It will be
good to see those whores
alongside each other.’
Schiller’s Mary redeems her
youthful crimes through an
ordeal that lifts her into the
realms of spiritual serenity,
while Elizabeth descends
deeper into rage, revenge
and deception.
Molière, undoubtedly one of
the greatest writers of comedy
in the history of theatre, won
enormous success for The
School for Wives (L’Ecole des
Femmes) in Paris in 1662;
yet this highly popular play,
satirising ridiculous male
attitudes to women, aroused
as much hostility as critical
acclaim. Arnolphe, a narrowminded merchant hoping to
marry his young ward, Agnès,
is obsessed with the fear of
being made a cuckold. But
all his artful plans serve only
to speed him towards the fate
he is so desperate to avoid.
Molière himself first played
the hapless merchant, and
this believable character
in an all too believable
predicament both startled
and delighted his public.
Comic poet and dazzling
swordsman, Cyrano is
hopelessly in love with
Roxane. But Roxane loves
the dashing Christian.
Cyrano, in a selfless act
of love, woos Roxane on
Christian’s behalf, writing
his love letters, feeding him
his lines. Romance. Tragedy.
Comedy. Excitement.

Henry V dramatizes the
legend of the heroic warriorking who won the battle of
Agincourt; but it also tells
the more human story of a
young king’s psychological
journey, learning to deal
with the political realities
of Church and State. As
increasing numbers of
British servicemen and
women are seeing active
service, Propeller brings its
own unique take on one of
Shakespeare’s most famous
plays.

The Winter’s Tale takes us
on an extraordinary journey.
King Leontes falls prey to an
inexplicable jealousy of his
wife Hermione; it causes her
(apparent) death and the
(actual) death of his young
son Mamillius. Sixteen years
of repentance, supervised
by Paulina, lead to scenes of
reunion and reconciliation
– but without concealing the

Twelfth Night is an
ambiguously erotic comedy.
Written when Shakespeare
was at the height of his
powers, it dramatizes many
different kinds of love, from
the idealism of Orsino or
the mutual affection of the
twins Viola and Sebastian
to the broad comedy of
Malvolio’s deluded passion
for Olivia: a sweet-sad
blend of laughter and tears.
RICHARD III
The Comedy of Errors
£9.99
Richard III is the culmination
of Shakespeare’s
dramatization of the Wars
of the Roses which he
had begun in his Henry
VI trilogy. It also contains
his first great theatrical
creation: Richard is
charming, witty, ironic,
terrifying – but he is also
the embodiment, in his own
personality, of the violence
and chaos of the Wars of
the Roses.
The Comedy of Errors is a
brilliant piece of theatrical
mechanism, a story of
mounting confusion
involving two pairs of twins.
But it also explores the
relations between lovers
and between husband and
wife, and ends with the
warmth and reconciliation
of a multiple family reunion.

Kneehigh now finds itself
celebrated as one of the
UK’s most exciting theatre
companies. This collection
contains the performance
texts of four of their highly
acclaimed shows: Tristan
& Yseult, The Bacchae, The
Wooden Frock and The Red
Shoes.
With forewords by Emma
Rice, Tom Morris, Anna
Maria Murphy and Carl
Grose, it offers a unique
insight into Kneehigh’s
approach to making
theatre, revealing how a
script can emerge from
a collaborative devising
process.
‘The truly great theatre
companies stand out
by their ability to be
distinctively themselves
and yet make a succesion
of shows that are
distinctively different. After
an astonishing few years of
creative frenzy, Kneehigh
joins those ranks.’

I, Shakespeare brings
together Tim Crouch’s
take on four Shakespeare
classics. These solo pieces
are written for younger
audiences but their
originality and strength
make them suitable
for any age. Each play
combines the need to tell
Shakespeare’s primary story
with an opportunity for
the secondary characters
to finally have their say –
Malvolio, Banquo, Caliban
and Peaseblossom.
‘How fresh, funny, poignant
and thought-provoking this
hour-long piece – Crouch’s
finest work to-date – is.
Highly recommended.’
 Daily Telegraph
on I, Malvolio
‘A drama teacher might use
one of these plays – or part
of one – as a piece of solo
practical work for GCSE or
A level.’

Four children are evacuated
from London during the
Blitz. While exploring the
Professor’s house, they
stumble across the gateway
to another world, and the
adventure begins. The land
of Narnia is under the spell
of the wicked White Witch,
and the four very quickly
find themselves caught up in
a deadly struggle between
good and evil.
‘simple and complex, and
surprisingly deep…a rich
and captivating experience.’
Ian Shuttleworth, Financial Times
When this adaptation
of C.S. Lewis’s classic
children’s story opened
at the RSC, Stratford
in November 1998, it
received rave reviews and
broke box-office records.

A group of teenagers do
something bad, really bad,
then panic and cover the
whole thing up. But when
they find that the coverup unites them and brings
harmony to their otherwise
fractious lives, where’s
the incentive to put things
right? DNA is a poignant
and, sometimes, hilarious
tale with a very dark heart.
DNA is a set text for AQA
English GCSE Exam. This
edition also features notes
for teachers and group
activity suggestions for the
classroom.
‘A taut, compelling thriller
and a modern-day spin on
Lord of the Flies, exploring
group behaviour and moral
equivocation.’
Financial Times
‘One of the best plays we have
read this year…perfect for Key
Stage Three students… If you
don’t teach this play at least
buy a copy for your students to
read. Rarely do you find a play
that upon reading just the first
two pages, you know that your
students will love…not much
will top this one for Key Stage

The tragi-comic story of a
gang of nine-year-old boys
who spend the summer of
1983 ‘Broncoing swings’ in
Girvan, on the west coast of
Scotland. Broncoing (kicking
the swing over the bar) is
the social bench mark and
a dangerous mixture of
vandalism and sport.
Decky is the smallest of the
group and the only one
who cannot Bronco. His
friend David remembers the
event of that summer, which
at first seem hilarious but
ultimately remain painful,
as the boys are faced with
an unthinkable tragedy and
are thrown into a restless
adulthood.
‘a funny, wise and sad
evocation of childhood that
knows what poor Peter Pan
fails to understand: that
the only alternative to not
growing up is dying young.’
Lyn Gardner, The Guardian
‘the sheer force and depth
of Maxwell’s study of an

A romp through the bubblegum years of teenage
life. Angela and Mazine,
besotted with Madonna,
play truant from school,
form a band, attempt
to write songs and, with
hairbrushes in hand, live
out their adolescent dreams
of becoming famous.
Meanwhile Angela’s
mother, Viv, struggles to
come to terms with her
marriage break-up and
her daughter’s explosive
lifestyle, as the play
rollercoasters through hope,
sex, ambition, despair, and,
most of all, love.

The White Rabbit is late for
the Duchess. The Cheshire
Cat won’t stop grinning.
And the Hatter is, well,
mad. In the middle of it
all is Alice, a young girl
with a vivid imagination
and a family life that’s less
than perfect. In this new
adaptation by renowned
playwright and Sheffield
native, Laura Wade, you
can follow Alice as she
escapes her bedroom to
find adventure in a topsyturvy world. Based on
Lewis Carroll’s classic tale,
Wade’s adaptation breathes
fresh life into a much-loved
story about rabbit holes,
pocket watches and talking
caterpillars.
‘Fabulous fun, as Laura
Wade grabs hold of Lewis
Carroll’s classic and
runs with it. Furiously
inventive and wonderfully
designed. Lyndsey Turner’s
production is as mad as a
bag of trifle.’

PB9781849430500

Michael Nunn and William Trevitt, aka the
Ballet Boyz, are pioneers in making modern
dance accessible and entertaining through
their celebrated stage and television work.
They met at the Royal Ballet School and
went on to become leading dancers with
The Royal Ballet. In 2001 they set up their
own company, Ballet Boyz, and established
themselves as one of the most original and
dynamic partnerships in modern dance:
revolutionising programming formats;
commissioning new choreography;
collaborating with a wide range of cuttingedge talents and building a following
through their regular television appearances
on the BBC, Channel 4 and Sky Arts.
To celebrate 10 years as the Ballet Boyz,
Nunn and Trevitt have hand-picked images
from their company and personal archives
to provide a unique and intimate insight into
one of dance’s most prolific, enduring and
exciting partnerships.
‘This anniversary book offers a tantalising
glimpse into life on the road with the
Boyz, its tone firmly celebratory. A must for
anyone interested in the art of movement.’
What’s On Stage
The book is a lovingly designed
retrospective of the last decade of Trevitt
and Nunn’s work, but leaves one wanting
to know more. Then again, dance is a
wordless art form about movement rather
than dialogue – and perhaps this is what
Trevitt and Nunn are recreating through
this book.’ Exeunt Magazine

Richard Wagner’s Ring Cycle is one of
the most ambitious musical projects ever
undertaken. Composed over a period of
over twenty-five years between 1848-1874
the four operas of Das Rheingold, Die
Walkürie, Siegfried and Götterdämmerung
total fifteen hours. Whilst each opera
is often performed as a work in its own
right, Wagner’s intention was that a full
understanding of the Ring Cycle required
attendance at all four operas.
The Story of the Ring is a wonderful
retelling in English by acclaimed film
producer Michael Birkett with illustrations
by Elizabeth Bury.

Cleopatra, La Pucelle,
Ophelia, Shaw’s St.
Joan and Ibsen’s Hedda
– a handful of seminal
roles for women in the

Suzman has played them
all and directed some.
Here she examines their

why only Cleopatra has an
independence that allows
her to speak to modern
women. None of these,
regrettably, matches up
to a Hamlet, but as she is
grateful for the parts he
did write, Suzman feels
a lightly-barbed attack

the acclaimed British poet
Glyn Maxwell. These essays
illustrate Maxwell’s poetic
philosophy, and takes us
inside the strange world of the

four young hopefuls grapple

and hard work. Illustrated
with examples from canonical
poets, this is a beautiful and

ancient and sublime of the

with her 1955 article, ‘Some

and Sir Peter Wright’s

volume raises questions as
meaningful today as they
were when de Valois first
addressed them.

Do religions have an
inherent right to be
respected? Is atheism itself
a form of religion, and can
there be such a thing as a
‘fundamentalist atheist’?
Are we witnessing a global
revival in religious zeal, or
do the signs point instead to
religion’s ultimate decline?
In a series of bold,
unsparing polemics,
A C Grayling tackles
these questions head on,
exposing the dangerous
unreason he sees at the
heart of religious faith and
highlighting the urgent
need we have to reject it
in all its forms, without
compromise. In its place he
argues for a set of values
based on reason, reflection
and sympathy, taking
his cue from the great
ethical tradition of Western
philosophy.

In these four lectures Peter
Hall reveals a lifetime of
discoveries about classical
theatre, Shakespeare,
opera and modern drama.
The central argument is
that form and structured
language paradoxically
give freedom to power
of thought and feeling,
much as the masks of early
Greek drama enabled
actors to express extreme
emotion. The mask may
take many forms – the
precise language of Beckett
and Pinter, the classical
form of Mozart’s operas, or
Shakespeare’s verse.

To this day The White Hart
and The Red Lion are
two of the most popular
names for a public house
in England – both talismans
that served as the insignia for
Richard II and the banished
Henry Bolingbroke, Duke
of Lancaster, who usurped
the throne in 1399. Nick
Asbury acted in the Royal
Shakespeare Company’s
famed Histories cycle which
staged Shakespeare’s vision
of the deposition of Richard
II through to the notorious
Battle of Bosworth in 1485.
With fellow RSC actors for
company, Nick travels the
country visiting the buildings,
landscapes and former sites
of war and intrigue that
feature in the plays, and asks
the question: what is it about
the England of Shakespeare’s
Histories that continues to
fascinate? From Alnwick to

R.C. Sherriff’s Journey’s End
is a syllabus text and the
most famous play about
World War One. First staged
in 1928, this book tells the
story of what went into the
making of this extraordinary
and powerful trench drama.
Taking in the history of the
show right up to the most
recent productions, Journey’s
End: A Biography of a Classic
War Play is a meditation on
Journey’s End’s achievement
as a war document, its
fascination for audiences
when it was first staged
and its continuing grip on
theatregoers and students
today.

performance of Aeschylus’
The Oresteia in 458 BC,
ending with the premiere of
Jez Butterworth’s Jerusalem in
London of 2009 AD, Benedict
Nightingale presents his
greatest moments in theatre.
He covers a remarkable
diversity of theatrical
openings and events, many
of historical interest and
importance, and many more
witnessed by Nightingale
himself during his 50-year
reviewing career. The plays
and shows that Nightingale
crisply, authoritatively and
readably brings alive range
from Sheridan’s School for
Scandal to Tom Stoppard’s
Arcadia, from Gogol’s
Government Inspector to the
Ian McKellen Macbeth, from
Synge’s Playboy of the Western
World, which provoked serious
riots in the Dublin of 1907, to
Lionel Bart’s Twang!! in 1965,
possibly the most disastrous
musical ever.

Charles Morgan was the
dramatic critic of The Times for
most of the years between 1922
and 1939.
The reviews for this selection
are taken from thousands
written for The Times and
from his weekly articles for
the New York Times on the
London theatre. Morgan
was widely regarded as the
most influential critic of his
day. His fellow critic, James
Agate, wrote ‘When Morgan
is on form he has us all beat.’
Though most were written
overnight for the following
day’s paper, they were given
space allowed to no modern
critic. Beautifully written, they
bring to life many of the great
actors and actresses and the
dramatists, old and new, as

frivolous Twenties into the
shadow of another war and

Writing ‘Master Class’ is the
biography of David Pownall’s
play, Master Class (1983),
from conception to coming of
age. Threaded through the
account of the inception and
development of the piece are
twists of authorial life-story
necessary for the telling.
Whereas a novel or poem
can be kept a secret until it is
properly finished, a play has
to go out to meet the people
early. On the day the script is
put into the hands of actors,
the soul of the thing passes
out of the author’s control. It
can be bent, battered, warped
– or improved within its being
far beyond expectations.
As a drama of dictatorship
in art and the cleverness
needed to evade its worst
manifestations, Master Class
has been at large for thirty
years, produced in twenty
countries, in some several
times. What has been done to
it, how it has fared, is touched
upon but the main story in
this book is the making of the
piece. A fascinating insight
into the playwright’s craft.

For half a century the
Royal Court has been
at the cutting-edge of
British theatre. Established
by George Devine as a
‘writers’ theatre’, the Court
has consistently provided a
platform for the most vital
dramatic talents of the day.
Illustrated throughout with
photographs from the
plays, and with documents
and rehearsal notes from
the original productions,
Inside Out considers the
most notable productions
from the tenure of each
successive artistic director
since the Court opened,
and includes interviews with
actors, writers, designers,
technicians, and directors
themselves. It lays bare the
truth about controversies
over productions like Look
Back in Anger, Saved,
Perdition, and Shopping
and F**king, the closely
fought battles over funding,
and remarkable internal
struggles between huge and
competitive personalities at
the heart of the Court.

To record his involvement

Asbury wrote a blog for

his engaging, observant,

experience the camaraderie
of actors, the terror of
forgetting lines, thirty-three
broadsword fights and, of
course, the ever-present
threat of being assaulted by
demented badgers.
‘His reflections – on death,
the ritual and mystery of
theatre, the importance of
play – give the book depth,
but where it really shines
is in his evocation of the
organized (and passionate)
chaos backstage.’

Athol Fugard has done more
to document and provide
a cultural commentary
on Apartheid-era South
Africa than any other writer
in the last century. Using
mostly migrant workers
and township dwellers,
and staging guerrilla-raid
productions in black areas,
Fugard frequently came into
conflict with the government,
forcing him to take his work
overseas. Consequently,
powerful plays such as The
Blood Knot, Sizwe Banzi is
Dead, and ‘Master Harold’…
and the boys came to
broadcast the inequities of
the Apartheid-era to the
world. Fugard’s work retains
an insistent influence, and is
studied and performed the
world over.
Based on a close reading
of Fugard’s theatre works
from No-Good Friday
(1958) to Victory (2007)
and supplemented with
personal interviews –
including with the playwright
himself – Alan Shelley’s
book is a comprehensive
but accessible analysis of
Fugard’s work, the personal
and political injustices that
inform it, and the lives of the
people it portrays.

Shortlisted by The Sunday Times in the
best humour books of 2012.
In Two Minds is the story of Jonathan Miller
– one of post-war Britain’s most intriguing
polymaths. He is a controversial humorist,
public intellectual and TV personality.
As a star in the groundbreaking satirical
revue Beyond The Fringe, he shot to fame
alongside Peter Cook, Dudley Moore and
Alan Bennett. His expertise and interests
encompass many areas, from medicine,
to the history of art, Mozart, atheism and
the nature of laughter. Jonathan Miller is
one of the most multi-talented Britons of
his generation, celebrated for his dazzling
intelligence and anti-establishmentarian wit.
This is the first comprehensive biography of
him, written by leading arts journalist Kate
Bassett (Independent on Sunday). Drawing on
in-depth interviews, it is an entertaining and
illuminating portrait of a fascinatingly complex
man.
‘Gielgud was indiscreet even by the exacting
standards of the acting profession… I could
hear Sir John’s voice as I read which lent
extra poignancy to some of his observations.’
The Sunday Times
‘An admirably thorough job of a biography:
sympathetic, deeply researched, informed by
long conversations with Miller and dozens
of friends, colleagues and, occasionally,
enemies.’ The Spectator
‘A glorious celebration of the idiosyncratic but
wholly endearing warmth of a unique figure.’
The Stage
‘A remarkable portrait of a complex and
Coleridgean figure, a man in two minds about
himself for most of his life.’ 
The Telegraph
‘John Gielgud was not just a great actor:
he was also a formidable wit, a brilliant
raconteur – and a very naughty boy.’
Simon Callow
This delicious feast of ‘Gielgoodies’,
compiled by Gielgud’s biographer, reveals
a less well-known side to this celebrated
man of the theatre: his lightning wit, his love
of scandal and gossip, his wicked delight
in putting down his fellow-artists, his relish
of bawdy humour. Full of startling new
material, the book also celebrates the man
who dropped a thousand bricks. Gielgud’s
excruciating gaffes were legendary, and
here are both the famous and the unknown,
collected in all their glory.

Tennessee Williams blazed
onto the world stage after
World War II with powerful
dramas like A Streetcar
Named Desire, Sweet Bird of
Youth, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof
and Night of the Iguana, all
plays which reached mass
audiences in star-studded
film versions. No other
modern playwright has
achieved such worldwide
popularity. Few other
playwrights have such a
grasp of what passions
and fears lie trapped in the
ordinary human heart.
The Selected Letters lift the
lid on the private workings
of Williams’ mind and
reveal an eye for precise
detail and dramatic
structure. The letters
chronicle the Williams
family drama and follow
“Tom” through a painful
return to St Louis and
later attendance at three
midwestern universities
until, in 1939, he assumes
his famous persona,
‘Tennessee’, and begins
a transforming life on the
road. The Selected Letters
culminate in 1945 with his
first Broadway success, The
Glass Menagerie. Williams
writes here with piety, wit
and astute self-knowledge.
These 330 letters, collected
by two leading American
Williams scholars, are
presented with commentary
as well as sketches and
photographs, forming a
virtual autobiography of the
great American dramatist.
‘Tennessee was a splendidly
indiscreet letter-writer, and
as we watch the young T.L.
Williams metamorphose
into Tennessee Williams in
these pages, it becomes
clear that his is the most
distinctive, humorous,
American voice since Mark
Twain.’

As the author of ‘well-made’
plays such as The Winslow

was Britain’s most successful

many years. Occasionally

Rattigan is revealed in this

Extending the author’s
correspondence from 1945
– 1957, a time of intense
creativity in his life, Volume
II of The Selected Letters of
Tennessee Williams covers
the production of six major
plays, including A Streetcar
Named Desire, The Rose
Tattoo, Camino Real, and
Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.
Following the immense
success of Streetcar,
Williams struggles to
retain his prominence with
a prodigious outpouring
of stories, poetry and
novels as well as plays.
Several major film projects,
especially the notorious
Baby Doll, bring Williams
and his collaborator Elia
Kazan into contact with
powerful agencies of
censorship, exposing both
the conservative landscape
of the 1950s and Williams’
own studied resistance to
the forces of conformity.

Sir Peter Hall

The story of a railway
worker’s son who became
one of the most powerful,
outspoken and charismatic
figures in European
theatre. Sir Peter Hall
has been director of
the Royal Shakespeare
Company, artistic director
of Glyndebourne, and
director of Britain’s National
Theatre from 1973 to 1988.

Peter Hall’s
Diaries: The Story
of a Dramatic
Battle
Sir Peter Hall
Edited by John
Goodwin
PB9781840021028
£16.99
In these intimate diaries,
Hall chronicles the eight
frenzied years between
1972 and 1980 when he
conducted the historic move
of the National Theatre from
the Old Vic to the South
Bank, and then triumphantly
consolidated its position
as the leading showcase
for theatre in Britain. With
remarkable candour Hall
describes his relationship
with Lord Olivier; with
with a particular focus on
some of his most enduring
characters. Betraying his
reputation as theatre’s
‘perennial outsider’,
Ambivalences finds Wesker
in generous and engaging
form, offering a rich and
unique insight into the mind
of one of the key figures in
20th-century drama.
‘Ambivalences is
fascinating… there is
plenty here for students of
late 20th-century drama
and/or those who want to
write plays.’
The Stage
‘A fascinating and
illuminating account of a
great dramatist in search
of his identity.’

critic and cultural writer
for The New York Times,
has known Albee and
followed his career since
its beginning, and in this
fascinating biography he
creates a compelling firsthand portrait of a complex
genius. The book describes
Albee’s life as the adopted
child of rich, unloving
parents, and covers the
highs and lows of his career,
from his early triumphs, to
years of critical and public
disfavour before his return

startlingly frank, incisive
style, he creates sometimes
affectionate, sometimes
acid portraits of his friends
and enemies, of great
actors in rehearsal.
In his new foreword, Hall
casts a critical eye over the
state of British theatre today
and, through a discussion
of politics and the arts in
the Eighties and Nineties,
contemplates its future.

Originally part of the UK
alternative comedy scene,
Andy de la Tour spent
many years on the circuit,
performing with the likes
of Rik Mayall, Ben Elton,
Alexei Sayle and French and
Saunders. After a 20-year
break from stand-up he
returned to New York City,
the genre’s spiritual home,
to start all over again in the
back-rooms and dive bars
of the Big Apple. This is one
man’s journey through New
York’s underground comedy
scene. From ‘Rubber Bullets’
in lower Manhattan to
the ‘Hot Tub’ in Brooklyn,
Andy takes the stand. Can
he make them laugh? Will
New Yorkers stomach his
outsider’s take on Obama,
the Tea Party and 9/11?
Andy’s a long way from
home and dying is not an
option.

read...anyone with interest

A FANNY FULL OF
SOAP
Nichola McAuliffe
HB9781840027440
£15.99
Written by actress and
playwright Nichola
McAuliffe, this novel tells the
story of leading lady and
one-time telly star Eleanor
Woodwarde, whose life
is collapsing around her
exquisitely turned ankles.
As an alternative to suicide,
she takes the lead in an
overblown West End salsa
musical. The producer’s
volatile incompetence is
matched only by the length
of his cigar. A rival actress
is after the number one
dressing room. And the
director can’t keep his
hands to himself. Eleanor
fears for her sanity, but at
fifty quid a skull the show
must go on...
‘If you want to know
showbiz, read this and
weep with laughter.’

In 1976 The Rolling Stones
were the greatest rock
band on Earth. To prove
it, they set off on their now
legendary European Tour
‘76, often known as the
‘Starf*cker’ tour and along
the way they invented
stadium rock, and, onstage
and off, set a standard
for decadence, excess,
and sheer rock ‘n’ roll
anarchy that has yet to be
surpassed. Commissioned
by The Observer to record
the rollercoaster tour at
its zenith – the concerts at
London’s Earls Court from
21-27 May – was Nobby
Clark. Featuring over 120
colour and black & white
pictures, Starf*cker is the
result; a unique visual
record, by one of the best
photographers in Britain,
of the greatest rock ‘n’
roll band on the planet,
cementing their place in
music history.
