This book addresses the notion posed by Thomas Kilroy in his definition of a playwright’s creative process: ‘We write plays, I feel, in order to populate the stage’. It gathers eclectic reflections on contemporary Irish theatre from both Irish theatre practitioners and international academics. The eighteen contributions offer innovative perspectives on Irish theatre since the early 1990s up to the present, testifying to the development of themes explored by emerging and established playwrights as well as to the (r)evolutions in practices and approaches to the stage that have taken place in the last thirty years. This cross-disciplinary collection devotes as much attention to contextual questions and approaches to the stage in practice as it does to the play text in its traditional and revised forms. The essays and interviews encourage dialectic exchange between analytical studies on contemporary Irish theatre and contributions by theatre practitioners.

There was no native tradition of theatre in Irish. Thus, language revivalists were forced to develop the genre ex nihilo if there was to be a Gaelic drama that was not entirely made up of translations. The earliest efforts to do so at the beginning of the 20th century were predictably clumsy at best, and truly dreadful at worst. Yet by the 1950s, a handful of Gaelic playwrights were producing plays in Irish worthy of comparison not only with those by their Irish contemporaries working in English but also with drama being produced elsewhere in Europe as well as in North America.

This book traces a significant shift in 20th century Irish theatre from the largely national plays produced in Dublin to a more expansive international art form. Confirmed by the recent success outside of Ireland of the "third wave" of Irish playwrights writing in the 1990s, the new Irish drama has encouraged critics to reconsider both the early national theatre and the dramatic tradition it fostered. On the occasion of the centenary of the first professional production of the Irish Literary Theatre, the contributors to this volume investigate contemporary Irish drama's aesthetic features and socio-political commitments and re-read the plays produced earlier in the century. Although these essayists cover a wide range of topics, from the productions and objectives of the Abbey Theatre's first rivals to mid-century theatre festivals, to plays about the "Troubles" in the North, they all reassess the oppositions so commonplace in critical discussions of Irish drama: nationalism vs. internationalism, high vs. low culture, urban experience vs. rural or peasant life. A Century of Irish Drama includes essays on such figures as W. B. Yeats, Lady Gregory, J. M. Synge, Sean O'Casey, Brendan Behan, Samuel Beckett, Marina Carr, Brian Friel, Frank McGuinness, Christina Read, Martin McDonagh, and many more. Stephen Watt is Professor of English and Cultural Studies at Indiana University-Bloomington, and author of Postmodern/Drama: Reading the Contemporary Stage, Joyce, O'Casey, and the Irish Popular Theatre, and essays on Irish and Irish-American culture. He has also written extensively on higher education, most recently Academic Keywords: A Devil's Dictionary for Higher Education (with Cary Nelson). Eileen M. Morgan is a lecturer in English and Irish Studies at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. She is currently working on Sean O'Faolain's biographies of De Valera and on Edna O'Brien's 1990s trilogy, and is preparing a book-length study on the influence of radio in Ireland. Shakir Mustafa is a Visiting Instructor in the English department at Indiana University. His work has appeared in such journals as New Hibernia Review and The Canadian Journal of Irish Studies, and he is now translating Arabic short stories into English.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2006 im Fachbereich Anglistik - Literatur, Note: 2,0, Otto-von-Guericke-Universität Magdeburg (Institut für Fremdsprachliche Philologien), Veranstaltung: Literature - Contemporary Irish Drama, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Wie im vergangenen Literatur-Hauptseminar zur Umwandlung, Geschichte und Reformation der irischen Dramen deutlich wurde, hat es gerade im Verlauf der letzten Jahrzehnte eine Revolution im Denken und Wirken irischer Theater-Autoren (und dementsprechend in der Popularität ihrer Stücke) gegeben, die diese in noch stärkerem Maße mit einer eigenen irischen Identität ausstatteten und in ihrer Vielfalt sowie der Symbolhaftigkeit eine neue, modernere Epoche des irischen Dramas geprägt haben. Von besonderer Signifikanz war diese Entwicklung insbesondere deshalb, da dies auch in engem Zusammenhang mit Irlands Kolonisationshintergrund, seiner Unabhängigkeitsbestrebungen und dem Wunsch vieler Iren nach kultureller Eigenständigkeit, innenpolitischer Unruhen, aber auch dem wirtschaftlichem Ab - und Wiederaufstieg begründet liegt und erklärt werden muss. Denn dies ist es letztlich, was das irische Theater ausmacht - die Frage bzw. Hinterfragung irischer Identität und ihre Verarbeitung in der Dramenkultur Irlands: "Ever since Lord Mountjoy and Neale Moore watched Goroduc in Dublin Castle in the months before the Battle of Kinsale in 1601, Irish audience have brought into the theatre a concern with what it means to be Irish (or to be in Ireland, which is not necessarily the same thing)." Doch gerade rückblickend auf die Theatergeschichte der vergangenen Jahrhunderte galt es für die Autoren der Dramen den Spagat zwischen den vorherrschenden Definitionen irischer Kultur, der Geschichte Irlands und der eigenen kreativen Freiheit zu finden, was sich nicht immer einfach gestaltete. Dies lässt sich in erster Linie durch eine fehlende Dramen- und Theaterkultur erklären, die erst durch die britische Kolonisation Einzug in die Kultur Irlands

This Handbook offers a multiform sweep of theoretical, historical, practical and personal glimpses into a landscape roughly characterised as contemporary Irish theatre and performance. Bringing together a spectrum of voices and sensibilities in each of its four sections — Histories, Close-ups, Interfaces, and Reflections — it casts its gaze back across the past sixty years or so to recall, analyse, and assess the recent legacy of theatre and performance on this island. While offering information, overviews and reflections of current thought across its chapters, this book will serve most handily as food for thought and a springboard for curiosity. Offering something different in its mix of themes and perspectives, so that previously unexamined surfaces might come to light individually and in conjunction with other essays, it is a wide-ranging and indispensable resource in Irish theatre studies.
