520 8 _aThis innovative collection of essays, written by leading scholars in the fields of theatre, performance and eco-criticism, reconfigures absurdist theatre through the optics of ecology and environment. As well as offering strikingly new interpretations of the work of canonical playwrights such as Beckett, Genet, Ionesco, Adamov, Albee, Kafka, Pinter, Shephard and Churchill, the book playfully mimics the structure of Martin Esslin's classic text 'The Theatre of the Absurd', which is commonly recognised as one of the most important scholarly publications of the 20th century.
