What does it mean for a play to be political in the 21st century? Does it
require explicit engagement with events and situations with the aim of
bringing about change or highlighting social wrongs? is it purely a matter
of content or is it also a matter of structure?
The Contemporary Political Play: Rethinking Dramaturgical
Structure examines the politics of contemporary political drama.
It traces the origins of the contemporary British political play to the
emergence of the idea of serious drama in the late 19th century throu gh
the work of George Bernard Shaw, and argues that a Shavian version of
serious drama was inextricably linked to the social and political
structures of British society at the time. While political drama is still
often thought of as adhering to a Shavian model in which social issues
are presented through a dialectical structure, Grochala argues that the
different political structures of contemporary Britain give rise to formally
inventive dramaturgies that are no less serious or political than their
Shavian forebears.
Through analysing the experimental dramaturgies of contemporary
plays by playwrights including Caryl Churchill, Simon Stephens,
Anthony Neilson, debbie tucker green and Mark Ravenhill, The
Contemporary Political Play offers a set of new principles for
understanding how a play functions politically and reveals how today
the dramaturgical structure of a play is as political as its content.
