Op het achttiende-eeuwse toneel verschenen regelmatig personages die zich het leven benamen, zoals de vaderlandslievende Cato en de liederlijke vorst Sardanapalus. Behalve vaderlands- en vrijheidsliefde of gefrustreerde machtswellust kon ook een gefnuikte liefde tot zelfmoord of zelfs dubbele zelfmoord leiden. Fameuze voorbeelden hiervan zijn Dido, Phaedra en Piramus en Thisbe. In Theatrale zelfmoord onderzoekt Anna de Haas de karakters en beweegredenen van dergelijke zelfmoordenaars en de context waarin deze hun – bij wet strafbare – daad konden volvoeren. Ook de kritiek op de toneelzelfmoord, in de vorm van beargumenteerde afwijzing of persiflage, krijgt een plaats, evenals de nieuwe soorten zelfmoordenaars die tegen het eind van de eeuw in toneelstukken werden opgevoerd. Ten slotte wordt de vraag gesteld of de zelfmoord ook daadwerkelijk op het toneel werd vertoond en, zo ja, hoe. Theatrale zelfmoord is de eerste Nederlandse studie over dit onderwerp.

A Cruel Theatre of Self-Immolations investigates contemporary protest self-burnings and their echoes across culture. The book provides a conceptual frame for the phenomenon and an annotated, comprehensive timeline of suicide protests by fire, supplemented with notes on artworks inspired by or devoted to individual cases. The core of the publication consists of six case studies of these ultimate acts, augmented with analyses and interpretations hailing from the visual arts, film, theatre, architecture, and literature. By examining responses to these events within an interdisciplinary frame, Ziółkowski highlights the phenomenon’s global reach and creates a broad, yet in-depth, exploration of the problems that most often prompt these self-burnings, such as religious discrimination and harassment, war and its horrors, the brutality and indoctrination of authoritarian regimes and the apathy they produce, as well as the exploitation of the so-called "subalterns" and their exclusion from mainstream economic systems. Of interest to scholars from an array of fields, from theatre and performance, to visual art, to religion and politics, A Cruel Theatre of Self-Immolations offers a unique look at voluntary, demonstrative, and radical performances of shock and subversion.

"Alice Birch's new play is scored like a piece of music... It is an extraordinary echoing text, full of pain and strange beauty. The three stories play out simultaneously on stage, the dialogue from one scene overlapping with the other two in a manner that borders on the choral... Birch has provided a text that explores these ideas in a formally invigorating way." The Stage Three generations of women. For each, the chaos of what has come before brings with it a painful legacy. A powerful, unflinching look at a family afflicted with severe depression and mental illness. Presented as a triptych of plays performed side by side, this groundbreaking play reverberates with audiences and readers. Published for the first time in Methuen Drama's Modern Classics series, this edition features a brand new introduction by Ava Davies.

I used to work in PR, if you're going to kill yourself let's make it an event . . . You can own this, Sam. For the first time in your life you. Could be. In charge. Things are getting tough for Sam. No job, benefits stopped and stuck in a tiny flat with his girlfriend Maya and her mum. The pressure is building. It feels like there might be only one way out. But every ending is a beginning and there are plenty of people keen to capitalise on Sam's momentous decision. From corrupt local politicians to kids trying to raise the number of views of their online videos, everyone wants a piece of Sam's demise. It scarcely matters what Sam actually wants. Faced with the promise of immortality, what's his life worth? Suhayla El-Bushra takes the satiric masterpiece by Nikolai Erdman and smashes it into contemporary urban Britain. It's provocative, fast-paced and very funny.
