What can a century of theatre tell us about a century of change?
Join former Artistic Director of Shakespeare's Globe, Dominic Dromgoole, for a witty and wide-ranging journey through the proscenium age, from 1865 to 1965. He brings to life over sixty playwrights, from towering figures to forgotten voices, who used theatre to capture a world in flux and responded to social upheaval, shaping and reflecting their times from behind the frame of the stage.
Erudite, irreverent and richly entertaining, this is theatre history as you've never seen it before.
