Stage Right is a refreshingly abrasive account of the state of British theatre since 1979, offering an account of the development of a new mainstream formed in conscious opposition to the work of the politically committed dramatists of the 70s and an analysis of the plays of the most successful playwrights of the new mainstream: Nichols, Gray, Frayn, Bennett, Ayckbourn and Stoppard.

The plays of Vanbrugh and Farquhar effectively herald the end of the great period of post-Restoration comedy. Both writers, in their different ways, reflect the larger changes that British society was undergoing as it began to define a modern world. In this study of the two playwrights, Vanbrugh and Farquhar, their work is located both in the context of their own times and in the larger history of theatrical production.

This series of three volumes provides a groundbreaking study of the work of many of the most innovative and important British theatre companies from 1965 to the present. Each volume provides a survey of the political and cultural context; an extensive survey of the variety of theatre companies from the period, and detailed case studies of six of the major companies drawing on the Arts Council Archives to trace the impact of funding on the work produced.1965–1979, covers the period often accepted as the ‘golden age’ of British Fringe companies, looking at the birth of companies concerned with touring their work to an ever-expanding circuit of ‘alternative’ performance venues.Leading academics provide case studies of six of the most important companies, including:* CAST, by Bill McDonnell (University of Sheffield, UK)* The People Show, by Grant Tyler Peterson (Brunel University London, UK)* Portable Theatre, by Chris Megson (Royal Holloway, University of London, UK)* Pip Simmons Theatre Group, by Kate Dorney (The Victoria and Albert Museum, UK)* Welfare State International, by Gillian Whitely (Loughborough University, UK)* 7:84 Theatre Companies, by David Pattie (University of Chester, UK).

Brextorians had long suspected that at the time of the Brexit negotiations, a series of audio recordings were made by and of government officials. In the year 3563, their suspicions were confirmed with the discovery of the first cache of tapes: conversations in the halls of Westminster and in private residences, secretly recorded in direct contravention of privacy laws.In The Brexit Tapes, the transcripts of these recordings are published for the very first time. Compiled by leading Brextorian John Bull, they offer a remarkable insight into the lost years from the Referendum to the Second Dark Age, and a clear picture of the events leading up to the civil war that followed.Directly challenging the accounts of Brexit provided in The Book of Mogg and Lord Johnson’s Res Brexitica, these transcripts are our first concrete record of history as it happened and, for the modern reader, a way to finally understand one of the most tumultuous periods of British history.

This book demonstrates how modern concrete performs when the environment pushes it to the limit.Today’s buildings must withstand far more than everyday wear and tear from accidental impacts and explosions to extreme weather, chemical exposure, and seismic events. As the demands on structures grow, so does the need for reliable, science‑based guidance on designing concrete that can endure these challenges.This book brings together real‑world insights from experts working at the forefront of concrete performance in extreme conditions. It highlights what happens when materials are pushed beyond conventional expectations and offers practical knowledge for designers, engineers, and construction professionals who must ensure long‑term safety and durability.Key points:Includes accounts of concrete in severe environments, showing how it behaves under rare and extreme conditions.Provides clear explanations of why material failures occur.Gives expert guidance on designing and monitoring concrete structures exposed to fatigue, corrosion, de‑icing salts, buried environments, geothermal conditions, and biogenic reactions.Plenty of case studies from nuclear waste storage to large dams, offering lessons that can be applied across a wide range of projects.By combining scientific understanding with professional experience, this book provides a practical resource for anyone involved in creating concrete structures that must stand up to the unexpected.

This book offers a fresh, authoritative perspective on lightweight concrete (LWC), bringing together cutting-edge research, industry insights, and real-world applications. Providing a comprehensive overview of modern LWC materials, mix design, structural behaviour, and emerging technologies, it highlights how LWC differs fundamentally from normal-weight concrete and how these differences can be leveraged for superior performance, sustainability, and cost efficiency.Drawing on an in-depth analysis of the U.S. construction market, the authors illuminate the business mechanics behind LWC adoption and demonstrate its often under-recognised advantages—from reduced transportation and labour demands to energy savings, enhanced durability, and lower environmental impact. The book also breaks new ground with dedicated chapters on fatigue and dynamic behaviour, self-compacting lightweight concrete, and cellular LWC, complemented by case studies from real projects.Written by leading experts in the field, this resource blends rigorous theory with practical guidance, making it indispensable for engineers, architects, contractors, researchers, and students. Whether you are an experienced practitioner or new to the subject, this book will equip you with the knowledge and confidence to integrate LWC into modern construction and to recognize its transformative potential in both technical and commercial contexts.This is more than a reference—it is a call to rethink current practice and to elevate the role of lightweight concrete in shaping the built environment.
