Samenvatting
Survey of the British theatre censorship, based on previously undocumented material in the Lord Chamberlain's correspondance archives in the British Library and the Royal Archives at Windsor. It reviews the pressures exerted on him and on the theatre by the government, the monarch, the church, foreign ambassies and by influentual public figures and organisations. Among the topics covered are: the ban on criticising the Nazis or portraying Hitler; restrictions on anti-war drama; controlling nudity and strip shows in wartime reviews. It was a crucial period in British history, when control of the stage was seen to be of decisive importance of controlling society. |
