Synopsis: "Closer", emerges as one of the most successful plays of the 1990s, and one with a continuing afterlife through the academy award nominated film adaptation in 2004.

The play has since gone on to repeat this success in over 30 other countries.This guide provides a comprehensive critical introduction to the play, giving students an overview of the background and context; detailed analysis of the play's structure, style, characters etc; analysis of key production issues and choices; overview of the performance history from the 1997 National Theatre premiere to recent productions including the film version; and an annotated guide to further reading highlighting key critical approaches.This title provides accessible, informative critical introductions to modern plays for students in both Theatre/Performance Studies and English.Offering up-to-date coverage of a broad range of key plays throughout modern drama, the guides include accounts of performance history, production analysis, screen adaptations and summaries of important critical approaches and debates.
