This latest issue of the Canadian Theatre Review takes a lively, thought-provoking, and sometimes controversial look at the role of theatre with respect to some of the most pressing ecological issues of our time.How do plays and performances respond to instances of species loss, climate change and environmental injustice? How do directors and critics respond to such plays? How do we create theatre that is more sustainable?Co-editors Sheila Rabillard and Nelson Gray have brought together a community of artists, directors and scholars to address these questions from a wide range of perspectives. The result is both informative and inspiring: an engaging series of articles, artistic accounts, interviews and reviews on a topic of vital interest to everyone, along with a newly published script—The Eco Show--by Daniel Brooks, one of this country’s most celebrated theatre artists.

Since its inception in 1974, Canadian Theatre Review has been one of the most important publishers of new Canadian plays. With a script in each issue, CTR has introduced new writers and advocated new approaches to Canadian drama. This volume brings together fifteen of the most significant plays published in CTR between 1974 and 1991. Most have been out of print since their appearance in the journal. They include recognized classics that have transformed Canadian theatre, such as "Ten Lost Years" and "This is for You, Anna," and lesser-known plays by such major writers as Robert Lepage and George F. Walker. Taken together these plays not only expand the boundaries of Canadian drama; they also document an important and exciting period in Canadian theatre. They are vivid testaments to the diversity of contemporary theatrical practice in Canada.
