Look Back In Anger Av John Osborne

<p>In 1956 John Osborne''s <i>Look Back in Anger </i>changed the course of English theatre.<br><br>''<i>Look Back in Anger</i> presents post-war youth as it really is. To have done this at all would be a significant achievement; to have done it in a first play is a minor miracle. All the qualities are there, qualities one had despaired of ever seeing on stage - the drift towards anarchy, the instinctive leftishness, the automatic rejection of "official" attitudes, the surrealist sense of humour... the casual promiscuity, the sense of lacking a crusade worth fighting for and, underlying all these, the determination that no one who dies shall go unmourned.'' Kenneth Tynan, <i>Observer</i>, 13 May 1956<br><br>''<i>Look Back in Anger</i>... has its inarguable importance as the beginning of a revolution in the British theatre, and as the central and most immediately influential expression of the mood of its time, the mood of the "angry young man".''
