This title seeks to shed new light on to the history of the Abbey Theatre and also examine the diverse groups, political, religious, gender, and class oriented, that consciously used performance to promote ideas about nationalism and culture in Ireland of the 1900s.

Through analysis of both major Irish dramas and the artists and companies that performed them, Modern Irish Theatre provides an engaging and accessible introduction to 20th century Irish theatre: its origins, dominant themes, relationship to politics and culture, and influence on theatre movements around the world.
