A revised and expanded edition of Clum's celebrated book that focuses on the relationship between British and American dramas written by and about gay men and the changing gay cultures those plays reflect, from the carefully enforced closet to liberation politics to AIDS to the qualified security of the present.
Scholar John Clum's critical textual analysis of Gay Theatre, is not a historical account of the plays themselves. In this work, he critically looks at a wide variety of gay plays, some well known others not. In conclusion Clum writes that this type of drama has much wider universality to audiences (both gay and straight) than what is often perceived. A must for scholars of both Theatre and gay studies!
