Книга «Театр эпохи восьмидесятых. Память и надежда…» представляет собой живую летопись событий театральной Москвы в период с конца 70-х по 80-е годы XX века. И то, что тогда можно было смело считать прямым репортажем с театральных подмостков, сегодня становится важной страницей в истории отечественной культуры. Особой ценностью этого издания является как раз то, что театр не был вынут из контекста эпохи, как отдельно взятое явление, а рассматривался автором на фоне всей культурной жизни столицы того времени.

The gifted filmmaker, corduroy activist and amateur dentist, Richard Ayoade, first chanced upon a copy of The Two-Hander Trilogy by Harauld Hughes in a second-hand bookshop.

Seiner Meinung nach diente die Bühne als eine moralische Anstalt, eine Schule praktischer Weisheit, als gesellschaftspolitische Anstalt, als Instrument der Aufklärung und nicht zuletzt als ästhetische Bildungsanstalt.
