The stage portrayal of the Victorians in recent times is a key reference point in understanding notions of Britishness, and the profound politicisation of that debate over the last four decades. This book throws new light on works by canonical playwrights like Bond, Edgar, and Churchill, linking theatre to the wider culture at large.
"Heritage, Nostalgia and Modern British Theatre: Staging the Victorians [. . .] offers the reading a set of productive and rewarding lenses through which to consider the Victorian figures who continue to haunt our both contemporary stages and our contemporary lives." - Sarah Grochala, Studies in Theatre and Performance
