"In the first play, a sensitive, highly principled young man gets "retrenched" by a transnational company he has served for years. Unable to take care of his family, and his sense of self-worth seriously hurt, he resorts to a drastic action. In the second play, a corrupt, decadent politician/businessman nurses a passionate ambition to have his daughter "answer the wedding bell" in the largest and most expensive car in town. Something dramatic happens that thwarts that ambition in the very last moment. These two plays provide a telling commentary on the Nigerian condition."--BOOK JACKET.

`The Lion and the Jewel alone is enough to establish Nigeria as the most fertile new source of English-speaking drama since Synge's discovery of the Western Isles.' The Times The ironic development and consequences of `progress' may be traced through both the themes and the tone of the works included in this second volume of Wole Soyinka's plays. The Lion and the Jewel shows an ineffectual assault on past tradition soundly defeated. In Kongi's Harvest, however, the pretensions of Kongi's regime are also fatal. The denouement points the way forward. The two Brother Jero plays pursue that way, the comic `propheteering' of the earlier play giving way to the sardonic reality of Jero's Metamorphosis. Madmen and Specialists, Soyinka's most pessimistic play, concerns the physical, mental, and moral destruction of modern civil war.

In 'The Great Galeoto; Folly or Saintliness', José Echegaray explores themes of jealousy and obsession through the interplay of two intertwining plots. Echegaray's literary style is characterized by its emotional intensity and moral complexity, drawing inspiration from both classical tragedy and Spanish romanticism. The juxtaposition of folly and saintliness serves as a reflection on the duality of human nature, ultimately questioning the thin line between good and evil. Written in the late 19th century, these plays showcase Echegaray's mastery in delving into the depths of the human psyche. José Echegaray, a Spanish playwright and Nobel laureate in Literature, was known for his dramatic works that often grappled with philosophical and ethical dilemmas. His background in mathematics and science influenced his writing, leading to intricate plots and thought-provoking themes. Echegaray's exploration of morality and human nature in 'The Great Galeoto' showcases his profound understanding of the human condition. I highly recommend 'The Great Galeoto; Folly or Saintliness' to readers interested in classic Spanish drama and psychological introspection. Echegaray's poignant portrayal of jealousy and virtue makes this work a timeless and captivating read that continues to resonate with audiences today.

David Almond turns his talents to drama in these two plays. Skellig is the dramatization of his highly acclaimed novel. What has Michael found in the derelict garage? What is this creature that lies in the darkness? Is it human, or a strange beast never seen before? And what will happen in the world when he carries it out into the light? Wild Girl, Wild Boy is an original play produced in London by the Pop-Up Theatre company. Young Elaine has recently lost her father, and now she spends her days dreaming in the family’s garden, skipping school, unable to read or write. One day, Elaine conjures up a Wild Boy from spells and fairy seed. No one else can see him, and Elaine disappears into a world of fantasy where she and Wild Boy remember the teachings of her father. Will her mother ever come to understand? These two plays introduce a new talent from the remarkable David Almond.

Two women play two women playing two men. RashDash return with a playful new show about gender and language. A story of power with a strong theme of love running through the narrative. John and Dan keep hearing people say that men have all the power, but it doesn't feel like that to them. Abbi and Helen are making a show about Man and men. They want to talk about masculinity and patriarchy but the words that exist aren't good enough, so there's music and dance too. It's loud and raucous.
