Impossible Plays Adventures with the Cottesloe Company

Bill Bryden's Cottesloe Company, which flourished at Peter Hall's National Theatre, was the English theater's only true ensemble of the last thirty years. Impossible Plays tells the story of the company and the many actors and musicians connected to it. Co-written by Keith Dewhurst and Jack Shepherd, the book explains the ideas behind the company and provides an idiosyncratic, personal take on the company. Beginning with a Royal Court Theatre Sunday night performance in 1970 and including photographs by John Haynes, Michael Mayhew, and Nobby Clark, Impossible Plays is a glorious and timely tribute to one of theater's most innovative companies.Dewhurst, Keith is the author of 'Impossible Plays Adventures with the Cottesloe Company', published 2007 under ISBN 9780413775856 and ISBN 0413775852.
