This critical and irreverent history of the Mummers Troupe demands the attention of theatre enthusiasts everywhere. With wit and polemic, Brookes, the Troupe's director who has experience with 'activist' theatre in Cuba, Central America and the United States, delivers a broadside to establishment views of theatre while arguing for its political role. Crammed with photographs, excerpts from plays, songs, and one-liners, A Public Nuisance will inform, entertain and provoke casual readers, drama students, theatre historians, and politicians alike.
