John McGrath (1935-2002)

"The tradition created among the European bourgeoisie by Ibsen, Strindberg, Chekhov, Shaw, Galsworthy, Anouilh, Cocteau, Giraudoux, Pirandello became a strong and self-confident tradition.  It declared, without too much bother, that the best theatre is about the problems and achievements of articulate middle-class men and sometimes women, is performed in comfortable theatres, in large cities, at a time that will suit the eating habits of the middle class at a price that only the most determined of the lower orders could afford, and will generally have an air of intellectuality about it - something to exercise the vestiges of one’s education on and to scare off the Great Unwashed.  There will be critics to make it more important by reviewing it in the important newspapers, and learned books written about it to prove that it really is ‘art’."
