Description

Willingham presents a historical survey of science fiction drama and focusses particularly on the history of attempts to stage science fiction. Little attention has been given to science fiction drama, though numerous science fiction plays exist. This volume gives special attention to works intended for adult audiences, with emphasis on the nature of science fiction drama, its origins and history, the staging of science fiction plays, and works by representative playwrights. The appendix offers an annotated list of 328 science fiction plays, with entries grouped in five categories: original drama, adaptations, musicals and operas, theatre pieces and multi-media works, and Frankenstein dramas. An extensive bibliography concludes the volume.

Author Biography:

RALPH WILLINGHAM received his Ph.D. in theatre from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He lives in Lubbock, Texas where he is active in community theatre. His previous publications have appeared in Science-Fiction Studies and Foundation.
