Edward Bond

Published by Methuen

'Edward Bond is the most radical playwright to have emerged from the sixties. . . the most savagely powerful dramatist writing today. . . Bond's plays cannot be ignored' ~ The Independent

This collected volume contains three plays which continue Edward Bond's exploration of themes from Shakespeare and other classical authors. Bingo puts Shakespeare himself on stage in a critical account of the writer and Stratford landowner's final days

The Fool is based on the life and madness of the 19th-century working-class poet John Clare. And The Woman is set at the end of the Trojan War with Hecuba as a main character, but instead of offering a resolution its Tempest-like second half defines the nature of social conflict

All three plays deal with the origins of the tensions of the modern world. Also included is Stone, a one-act parable of oppression
