A History of Australian Drama presents a comprehensive two-volume nonfiction study charting the evolution of theatrical writing and performance in Australia. The first volume chronicles the development of Australian drama from the 1830s to the 1960s, illustrating how playwrights shaped national identity through themes of colonial life, social change, and cultural assertion. The second volume details the explosion of creativity in the 1970s, arguing that this decade marked a turning point in theatrical innovation, political engagement, and Indigenous representation. Rees instructs readers in the stylistic shifts, institutional support, and critical reception that defined each era.
