NEW WRITING SPECIAL

Philip Fisher talks to critic and theatreVOICE co-editor Aleks Sierz about his new book, Rewriting the Nation: British Theatre Today (Methuen Drama), the legacy of 1990s in-yer-face theatre and the ups and downs of new writing in the UK during the past decade.

What’s thrilling for me is when a piece of new writing does something experimental with theatre form, especially if the experiment works.
