German-speaking playwrights have exercised a considerable if subtle influence on Australian theatre history. Presenting a range of paradigmatic case studies, this book offers a detailed account of Australian productions of German-language drama between 1945 and 1996. The reception of Bertolt Brecht is used as a touchstone for analysing stagings of plays by writers such as Max Frisch, Rolf Hochhuth, Peter Handke and Franz Xaver Kroetz. In addition, more recent developments in the reception of German drama on the Australian stage are discussed.

The Author: Ulrike Garde is Lecturer in German Studies at Macquarie University, Sydney. Her research focuses on German literature and the performing arts. Her recent publications analyse the creation of cultural identities and Australian-German cross-cultural relationships with a focus on the Australian reception of German-language drama. Some of her contributions appeared in the Brecht Yearbook and the Jahrbuch Deutsch als Fremdsprache. Intercultural German Studies.
