SynopsisBased on conversations with directors and actors who knew her, this book is a study of the British post-war dramatist, Sarah Kane. It covers all her major plays and productions, as well as unpublished material and reviews, and looks at her continuing influence after her tragic early death., Her play, "Blasted", brought Sarah Kane to the theatre pages of the broadsheets, the front pages of the tabloids, and to the notice of the nation. Based on conversations with directors, actors and others who knew her, this book studies the British post-war dramatist, covering all Kane's major plays and productions, as well as hitherto unpublished material and reviews. It also looks at her continuing influence after her tragic early death. Locating the main dramatic sources and features of her work as well as centralizing her place within the "new wave" of emergent British dramatists in the 1990s, Graham Saunders provides an introduction for those familiar and unfamiliar with her work., Blasted brought Sarah Kane to the theatre pages of the broadsheets, the front pages of the tabloids, and to the notice of the nation. Covers all Kane's major plays and productions, contains hitherto unpublished material and reviews, and looks at her continuing influence after her tragic early death. A chapter-by-chapter analysis looks at each play in detail and the appendices carry transcripts of interviews with colleagues and leading theatre practitioners involved with her productions. This book is the first study of the most significant British dramatist in post-war theatre and includes unpublished interview material with Sarah Kane herself.
