Synopsis "Plays Unpleasant (Penguin Classics)"

As well as Serjeant Musgraves'Dance, first performed at the Royal Court Theatre in 1959 and now acknowledged as one of the best plays of the last two decades, this volume contains two further well-known Arden plays from the early sixties. The Workhouse Donkey, first staged to Michael Billington of The Guardian: 'It hit me amidships and left me feeling it was after all possible to unite passion, politics, poetry, sex and song in a living theatrical form'. The third play is Armstrongs'Last Goodnight, staged first by the Glasgow Citizen's Theatre, then by the National Theatre at the Old Vic, which Ronald Bryden in the New Statesman found to be 'Arden's strongest play. Each of his thirty speakers is beautifully alive, a realized private himself in the marvellous language of Dunbar and the real knotted with strength, rough and springy as an uncombed fleece'. Introducing the three plays is a short Prefrace by the author specially written for this volume.
