Description | There has been a new surge of interest in staging French work - not only that of the great classics, Corneille, Molière, Racine, but also contemporary playwrights such as Vinaver and Koltès. To mark the publication of 'Landmarks of French Classical Drama', this talk by David Bradby, Professor of Drama and Theatre Studies at the University of London, will review recent productions and consider the peculiar problems of producing translations that come to life in today's theatre. |
