- 2012286347 abstract "This anthology is a bold and exciting read for students in a time when redacted editions of Shakespeare are becoming increasingly popular in the classroom. Taboo Theatre samples our recorded dramatic history from Greece to the present and includes many of our most famous playwrights. The plays are organized thematically into five chapters, including Our Western Roots, Extreme Consequences, Bordello Drama, and Recent Voices. The fifth and final chapter, The discussion continues-New Playwrights, debuts four provocative, new artists who speak out on subjects that will surprise and intrigue a new generation. These plays look unblinkingly at our historical and present day taboos while shedding light on social questions regarding the responsibilities of the artist to society.".
