Reviews

“In The 1920s London-Irish Theatre, Nelson Ritschel reproduces a decade in which Irish drama, Irish actors, and Irish producers came to the forefront of British theatre. But in addition to cataloguing the staging of Irish plays major and minor, Ritschel evokes the politically complicated and violent context within which they were received. The product is an invaluable contribution to the serious study of Irish dramatic literature and British theatre history."" Stephen Watt, author of Joyce, O’Casey, and the Irish Popular Theatre and From the ""Troubles"" to Trumpism: Ireland and America, 1960–2023
