Good Nights Out: A History Of Popular British Theatre 1940-2015

An alternative history of postwar British theatre which charts and examines the plays and musicals that were enormous commercial successes, but which are often omitted from historical accounts in favour of more complex, but less popular work. Aleks Sierz argues that such shows express the dreamlife of the British people at various points in postwar history and are of both social and cultural significance.
