Methuen Drama Play Collections

Winner of ADELF's 2017 Grand prix littéraire d'Afrique noire (Best African Literary Work), Tarnagda blends poetic and colloquial registers to create powerful characters that resonate with the universal themes of longing, the need to be heard, and the realities of everyday life. This debut anthology now invites the anglophone world to encounter Tarnagda's theatre alongside voices of West African scholars and theatre artists whose short forwards and afterword contextualise each of the translated plays and his impactful theatre career. The plays include:And If I Killed Them All, Ma'am? (2013)Tears from the August Sky (2013)Sank, or the Patience of the Dead (2016)Ways of Loving (2017)Red Earth (2017)Musika (2019) Along with an introduction by Heather Jeanne Denyer and completed by images of these productions, The Plays of Aristide Tarnagda is a fantastic introduction to not only this acclaimed and beloved playwright, but also to the themes and joys of francophone African theatre.

Harvard Library of Ukrainian Literature

The Forest Song, a play in three acts, unfolds in spirited dialogues between Ukrainian mythological characters and people of the land. It meditates on humanity and nature and recreates local Volhynian folklore. This crowning achievement by Lesia Ukrainka is a testament to the power of love to overcome differences and even bring back the dead.

the ripple, the wave that carried me home

Between 2020 and 2022, theatre had to adapt and, in doing so, challenged ideas of what was possible, and what was even 'theatre'. Due to the global pandemic, an exceptional and wide range of works made for, or adapted to, brand new conditions and limitations. While these works are defined by interpandemic conditions in the Anthropocene, they serve as portals to thinking about theatre-making in the future. Gathered in this collection are pieces adapted or made for podcast theatre, livestream illusionist interactive performance, audience-uploaded hybrid performance, one-on-one online interaction, lip-synch opera-theatre, climate crisis activist manifesto film/theatre, spoken word and gaming installation art, multi-location broadcast plays, providing an accessible introduction to 'Transmedia' theatre. Transmedia theatre has been a boundary-breaking and rich area of performance since the 1990s, but the (by necessity) explosion of works that were created during the early years of the pandemic signalled a new, exciting, and accessible method by which theatre-makers could share their work and also challenge their own practices. While these specific works are markers of a specific time in performance history, they also point ways forward, not only in terms of form and function, but in how educators, students and fellow practitioners could conceive of re-staging these works in person and/or on digital platforms. For a generation that has grown up online, whose vocabularies of expression are as much digitally native as they are IRL, transmedia theatre, and the realm too of VR and AR story and audience design which it borders, holds a firm place in busting open the realm of the possible.

After ten long years spent away from Dublin, Richard, Bertha and their young illegitimate son Archie are back home. Despite expectations of comfort and domesticity, the couple's return to the place where they first met triggers an existential questioning, an anxiousness which is exacerbated by meetings with old friends and lovers. James Joyce's only surviving play, Exiles builds upon one of his most famous short stories, 'The Dead', to provide a profound exploration of jealousy, doubt and the complexity of human desire.
