About The Story of Britain's Amateur Theatre

On the day of his new book Questors, Jesters and Renegades: The story of Britain’s Amateur Theatre being pubished, Coveney will recount some of the anecdotes and previously unheard stories that show amateur theatre is not just something that serves as a popular pastime: it has been an instrumental part in the development of twenty and twenty-first century professional theatre, and a fascinating barometer and product of the times in which we live.
