This course deals with the British crime play and its developments from the 1950s to today. We will ask about the conventions of the genre, the role of generic formulae and plot devices, stage histories and the reception of the plays, and the development of the genre from Agatha Christie's crime plays over absurdist versions to parodies and postmodern rewritings.In the course, we will not only read the plays, but we will equally think about stage techniques and production contexts. Participants should therefore be ready to take part in more creative exercises such as acting or preparing scenes for production. If possible in the context of the pandemic, these interactive sessions will take place onsite.
