A Gray Play Book of long and short plays for stage, puppet-theatre, radio and television, acted between 1956 and 2009, with an unused opera libretto, a film script of the novel Poor Things and excerpts from the pictorial storyboard of the novel Lanark by Alasdair Gray

This collection brings together some of Alasdair Gray's best plays. For the first time ever 22 of his works (stage plays, radio scripts and film and television scripts) have been gathered together in one significant volume. This exciting work includes the unabridged scripts of four of his most famous dramas: The Fall of Kelvin Walker (1967), Mavis Belfridge (1968), McGrotty and Ludmilla (1975) and Working Legs (1997), ‘A Play for People Without Them’. These are combined with four one-act sexual comedies written in the '60s and '70s; The Loss of Golden Silence, Dialogue, Homeward Bound and Sand Lang and Miss Watson.

A Gray Play Book follows the creation of the playwright genius from his first work, written at age 11, to the 2008 one-act play Voices in the Dark. Plus an intriguing glimpse at the, as yet unmade, Lanark movie with sections of the original storyboard.
The essential gift for all the fans of Alasdair Gray and his work.
