This book will interest everyone - whether student, academic or general reader - who wants to know more about issues concerning the recent history of British theatre. In their values and aims, the Adelphi Players pre-empted many of the post-war developments that we associate with the non-commercial, fringe and community theatre movement. In Richard Heron Ward founder of the Adelphi-Players, we encounter a dramatist, novelist, essayist and poet who has been unusually neglected in terms of our appreciation of the English literature of the broad left in the 1930s, `40s and `50s.The Adelphi Players has been edited by Peter Billingham, who has also provided an introduction placing Ward and the Adelphi players in the wider social, cultural and ideological context.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51863689036064,"sku":"NEW041527026X","price":267.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61NFuZ_zt8L.jpg?v=1781640537","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-adelphi-players-the-theatre-of-persons-routledge-studies-in-critical-realism-041527026x","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
