Not in Front of the Audience by Nicholas De Jongh
A pioneering study of the theatre's treatment of homosexuals and homosexuality from the 1920s to the present day. Only in the 60s did theatres confront heterosexual prejudice and in the wake of AIDS, the issue is once again highly charged.`A lucid, well-argued and entertaining read that takes us from the prosecution of Oscar Wilde to the AIDS plays of the early-80s..' - The LIST
`Careful, detailed and important - an insider's view, with all the insight and engaging tittle-tattle that brings.' - The Times
`At long last, dramatists are proud to be openly gay. To appreciate the bravery and maturity of their achievement, you should remember their predecessors, whom Not In Front Of The Audience deftly exposes.' - The Guardian
