William Storm explores the significance of irony in the modern theatre, investigating major works by playwrights including Chekhov, Pirandello and Brecht. Focusing on well-known representative characters, from Ibsen's Halvard Solness to Stoppard's Septimus Hodge, he demonstrates how these key theatrical figures enact, embody and personify irony.
