Abstract
ABSTRACTThis article evaluates key London productions of Restoration drama over the last 50 years and addresses how directors envisage the future of Behn’s plays on the twenty-first-century stage. Discussion includes past revivals of plays marketed as Restoration entertainment, the connection between modern productions of Behn and today’s theatrical landscape, and the potential opened up by unconventional performance spaces. The analysis seeks to determine whether the creative environment and audiences’ awareness of Restoration drama are ripe for carefully considered revivals of Behn’s plays. To date, has her work been performed with enough impact to garner the widespread attention of modern London audiences?
