Just in time for its fortieth birthday, Tonight at the Tarragon gathers just some of the extraordinary plays that originated in or received their English-language premiere at one of Toronto's leading playhouses, the Tarragon Theatre. Hand-picked and edited by former Eye Weekly and The Globe and Mail theatre critic Kamal Al-Solaylee, the anthology captures the theatre during a transitional phase in its history: 1998'"2005, the final years of late Artistic Director Urjo Kareda and the first seasons of his successor Richard Rose. Including a general introduction that provides an overview of the Tarragon's creation in 1971 and its enduring legacy as well as short prefaces to each of the six plays, Tonight at the Tarragon is essential reading for fans, students, and scholars of modern Canadian theatre. Includes the plays Half Life by John Mighton; Rune Arlidge by Michael Healey; The Optimists by Morwyn Brebner; I, Claudia by Kristen Thomson; Motel Hélène by Serge Boucher, adapted by Judith Thompson from a translation by Morwyn Brebner; and It's All True by Jason Sherman.
