Adding supplemental reading as time and research permit!

In the meantime, I invite you to do a little background reading by looking at these two theater surveys:

The World Encyclopedia of Contemporary Theatre:  Volume One, Europe, edited by Don Rubin:
Routledge, 1994-2000.  See “United Kingdom” chapter on pp. 890-934.
