Dyfyniadau
‘This impressive, stimulating appraisal of the work of J. O. Francis explores his central contribution to the development of a vigorous amateur theatre movement in Wales between 1914 and 1950, itself a key factor in the creation of a new national identity. Critical theory is deftly combined with clear-sighted analysis of the works in their cultural and theatrical contexts. This is a pioneering and significant volume in the study of Welsh drama and performance.’
–Professor Hazel Walford Davies
