This anthology of selected plays brings together his shorter works for the first time into one volume that expands his legacy and confirms his place as one of Britain's key writing talents of the twentieth century.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Originally an actor, Fagon's writing for the stage, film and television grew throughout the early 1970s, before his breakaway hit \u003ci\u003eThe\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eDeath of A Black Man\u003c\/i\u003e was produced at the Hampstead Theatre in 1975. Now one of British theatre's most well-known names, Fagon's legacy is secured due in no small part to the commemorative award in his honour that was established following his death in 1986, to recognise Black British playwrights from the Caribbean, resident in the United Kingdom. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Brought together with a critical introduction from Dawn Walton OBE, this collection also includes a reflection and response from a former winner of the Alfred Fagon award, Juliet Gilkes Romero.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The plays include: \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e A Day in the Bristol Air Raid Shelter\u003cbr\u003e Adventure Inside Thirteen\u003cbr\u003e Four Hundred Pounds\u003cbr\u003e No Soldiers in St Paul's\u003cbr\u003e Shakespeare Country\u003cbr\u003e Small World\u003cbr\u003e Weekend Lover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alfred Fagon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350270849\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350270848\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/20\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.08lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.56d","brand":"Alfred Fagon","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44071408763135,"sku":"9781350270848","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_59d5a2ae-f215-43ae-8741-db2d907186c6.jpg?v=1685435924","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/alfred-fagon-selected-plays-alfred-fagon-9781350270848","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
