Abstract

English-Canadian Theatre, part of a new Oxford University Press series which surveys various aspects of Canadian literary culture, offers a scholarly overview of its topic. Written by two professors at the University of Guelph who have an ongoing concern for Canadian theatre, the book claims to be the first comprehensive work to draw together a history of our nation’s anglophone theatre and an assessment of its drama. Though there’s little doubt that dramatic criticism and theatre history are interdependent, Benson and Conolly sometimes go on seeming tangents in their literary discussions, especially given the confines of a slim volume (114 pages of text, followed by a selected bibliography and index).
