Opis
John Byrne's 1978 play The Slab Boys is a semi-autobiographical drama set in a Paisley carpet factory in 1957.
One of the most successful plays in modern Scottish, and British, theatre, it has been performed internationally and produced both for television and as a film.
A broad comedy, there are elements of farce, burlesque, slapstick, and stand-up, alongside satire and very dark realism.
Its themes are both simple and universal: aspiration, ambition, the bravado and optimism of youth, relationships, social class, missed opportunities, and the daily grind.John Byrne (1940-2023) was a prominent playwright, screenwriter, artist and designer.
Despite his successes as a writer he saw himself primarily as a painter - and yet his stagecraft is firmly grounded in theatrical tradition and convention.
This SCOTNOTE Study Guide provides excellent support and information for anyone studying The Slab Boys, and its setting, themes, and characters.
