It explores the connections between politics and culture (specifically theatre) and between political theory and cultural (theatrical) expression. The book is organized chronologically and uncovers much in labour and theatre history which is in danger of being lost. It can also be seen as a way into different moments in its subject's story (e.g. post-Ibsen naturalism; agitprop theatre; 'fringe' theatre of the 1970s) and the relationship of such forms to specific political events and ideas at specific points in history." -- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Workers' theater $z Great Britain $x History. 650 0 $a Socialism and theater $z Great Britain $x History. 650 7 $a Socialism and theater. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01123704 650 7 $a Workers' theater. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01180401 651 7 $a Great Britain. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204623 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231219013444.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7D872B469E3C11EE84E191EF36ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
