description: Luigi Pirandello is widely regarded as one of the foremost innovators in twentieth-century theatre. Six Characters in Search of an Author caused a riot when it was first produced in Rome in 1921 and was banned by the Lord Chamberlain from public performance in Britain until 1928. It remains today an extraordinary and fascinating play.
