Six Pack by John Mcgrath
Six plays by the playwright John McGrath: Border Warfare, The Cheviot, the Stag and the Black, Black Oil, Blood Red Roses, Joe's Drum, Out of our Heads, and Random Happenings in the Hebrides.John Peter McGrath (1935-2002) was a playwright from Liverpudlian who was most known for his work with the 7:84 theatre group. The Cheviot, the Stage, and the Black, Black Oil (1973), his most popular drama, depicts the clearance of the Scottish highlands, first for grazing, then for shooting, and last for oil. Likewise, McGrath made the cause of Scottish independence a central theme in his writing, tying it in with his ambitions to create a popular, radical theater. Michael Billington remarked after McGrath's death at the age of 67, No one since Joan Littlewood has done more to advance the cause of popular theatre in Britain than John McGrath.
