Katherine Senior: The Darling Buds of
May - A Comedy

The Darling Buds of May - A Comedy

Methuen Drama Play Collections

Discover the complex histories and experiences of the Palestinian people through the work of Ismail Khalidi. With compelling characters, engaging storytelling, quick-witted humor, and unwavering political commitment, Khalidi has entertained and informed audiences in America and around the globe, providing diverse perspectives on the Palestinian experience from the British Mandate era to the challenges faced under occupation today. This new collection spans Khalidi's career, featuring both his early monodramas and never-before-published new plays. An essential intervention in academic and artistic discourses that often overlook or marginalize Palestinian and Arab voices, Khalidi's work proves him to be an influential figure on an international scale, bridging the Americas and the Middle East. Until I Return: The Selected Plays of Ismail Khalidi further contextualizes his work with an essay by Professor Edward Ziter (NYU Tisch, USA), an enlightening interview with the playwright conducted by the editors, and an annotated timeline of Khalidi's life, giving comprehensive insight into both the playwright and his impact.

Until I Return: The Selected Plays of Ismail Khalidi

The Revels Plays

Advertised in its Prologue as a prequel to Shakespeare's Julius Caesar and Antony and Cleopatra, John Fletcher and Philip Massinger's The False One is the first literary work completely to revolve around the affair between Caesar and Cleopatra in Egypt. By frankly portraying the weakness and pettiness of such great historical personalities alongside their strength and nobility, the play brilliantly exposes Caesar and Cleopatra as flawed individuals who eventually turn out to be capable of transcending their own limits. Witty, fast-paced and laced with irony, The False One is informed by early modern discussions of issues connected with the role of courtiers, King James I's pacifist policy and the dangers of colonialism. In its deployment of the liaison between Caesar and Cleopatra as a venue for the exploration and criticism of contemporary political manoeuvring and its high-spirited and pungent appropriation of Roman history, The False One proves to be one of the most compelling Jacobean dramatizations of the classical past. This Revels Plays edition offers the first fully annotated, single-volume critical edition of The False One, with a thorough introduction that provides new insights on the date and the theatre of the play's first performance, examines the playwrights' imaginative reworking of their classical and contemporary sources, and explores the considerable theatrical potential of a play that has hitherto regrettably been lost to the dramatic repertory. With its modernized spelling and detailed on-page commentary, this edition makes the play newly accessible to readers, students and theatre practitioners.

By John Fletcher and Philip Massinger

The False One

Gothic Fantasy

The ideal gift for lovers of Shakespeare to enjoy the intrinsic beauty of the Bard's prose and poetry. Part of a beautiful three-set edition, with the works laid out in all their glory: clear, accessible and unfettered by fussy notes. An attractive and timeless collection that will appeal to all: The Comedies.

Based on the First Folio of John Heminges and Henry Condell

William Shakespeare Complete Works The Comedies

Discover the work of 2023 Pulitzer Prize finalist Lloyd Suh, whose work contests the pastness of the past, revealing the unexpected ways that history reverberates across the present to shape the future.

Through his plays, Lloyd Suh has been documenting 150 years of Asian and Asian American experiences, exploring forgotten and ignored pivotal moments in Asian American history. His plays draw on a variety of forms and aesthetics to re-tell, re-discover, and re-invent the past. Unique in scope and perspective, these history plays offer a powerful metaphor for the ingenuity and endurance of Asian American communities.
 
Alongside these five plays - The Chinese Lady, The Far Country, Bina's Six Apples, Charles Francis Chan Jr.'s Exotic Oriental Murder Mystery, and The Heart Sellers - this edition is rich with additional resources. Not only is each play accompanied by a preface by a theatre scholar and a postscript by a creative collaborator, but the collection opens with an introduction by editor Christine Mok and closes with a conversation with playwright himself.

Taken together, the plays, along with their context, criticism, and collaborative insight, offer an expansive view of Suh's vision in an inaugural collection to inspire theatre makers, actors, and students alike.

This anthology documents a decade of some of the UK's most exciting queer performances, through a combination of retrospective scripts, development material and visual documentation.

 Queer performances are expected to live a brief, bright life without leaving any textual record. Indeed, they rarely begin with complete scripts at all, being often developed instead by performance practices designed to fill noisy bars, clinking cabaret venues and fringe theatres, typically for short runs. This lack of textual documentation underplays the importance of writing to contemporary queer performances, while rendering them vulnerable to disappearance in the diaphanous archives of memory.
 
Writing Queer Performance: Contemporary Texts and Documents features eight seminal works, captured though performance texts and visual documentation, that ensures their accessibility long after the event of live performance. Supported by a contextualizing introduction, the anthology provides a panoramic view of contemporary preoccupations, processes and practices. 

The works include:
 Black (2013), Le Gateau Chocolat
Pull the Trigger (2016), Vijay Patel
Re-Member Me (2017), Dickie Beau
DollyWould (2017), Sh!t Theatre
NIGHTCLUBBING (2018), Ray Young
Pleasure Seekers (2022), Bourgeois &amp; Maurice
The Making of Pinocchio (2022), Rosana Cade and Ivor MacAskill
Ten Commandments (2022), David Hoyle
