Synopsis
editFor an article about a classic play, this is very skimpy indeed. I have added a synopsis, which may go some way to explaining to the reader why the play was controversial in the first place. It's not the most polished synopsis I have ever written, but even a rough one is better than none at all. It was written from memory (I have worked on a production of the play) and will need correcting. Lexo (talk) 13:48, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
Sources
editI have added some sources, which I will use to expand the article to put the play in context – especially it's critical reception at the time, and since then.
I have also taken out the following, which seems to be a dead link: American Repertory Theatre's Edward Bond and the Morality of Violence
Rarely revived
editEditor Oimee provided no evidence for his/her assertion: "The play is rarely revived due to its controversial nature..." In fact, the reference linked to this statement – ie interview with Edward Bond – give a quite different and specific reason for it not being revived in London for 20+ years, ie his view that the previous director didn't understand the play.
