Büchner in Canada: Woyzeck and the Development of English-Canadian Theatre
View through CrossRef
The production history of Büchner's Woyzeck in Canada's English-language theatres corresponds closely with the development of an indigenous English Canadian drama during the period of 1960-80. Particular qualities of the style, structure, and political tone of Woyzeck made it an attractive vehicle for the 'alternate' theatre companies that blossomed during this era. Its most profound impact was felt via the productions of George Luscombe, John Herbert, Richard Rose and Gordon McCall, all of whom were subsequently to do important work which would be indebted to their experience with Büchner's play.
