Professor Maggie Gale’s fascinating bookWest End Women: Women and the London stage 1918 – 1962 presents groundbreaking research about women playwrights in London, and the staging of their plays, between 1918 and 1962.
Documenting social and theatrical history, the book sheds light on the transformations that occurred in the theatre and the lives of British women in relation to specific plays of the period. Women covered in the book include Dodie Smith, Clemence Dane, Gordon Daviot and Bridget Boland.
The book features a useful table listing plays by women on the London stage from 1917 to 1960, and we have reprinted here, with kind permission from the author.

This is an excellent resource but it would be helpful if someone had proofed it before putting it up. Sowerbt is Sowerby, of course and Alix Augusta Grein (married to critic and producer of the Independent Stage Society, J.T.Grein) wrote as Michael Orme not Michale. Laura Wildig’s ‘Precilla and the Profligate’ should be Priscilla and the Profligate. ETC
