This is the first book to examine one of the most influential modern theater companies, 7:84 (Scotland), under the directorship of John McGrath. DiCenzo explores not only the development of this company but also the growth of popular theater in general within the past twenty years. DiCenzo also offers a new methodology for analyzing records and materials found in theater company archives. With valuable primary source material and informative production photographs and company posters, the book will be of interest to students and scholars of modern British theater and social history.
