Description:
Opens with list of productions, list of published plays and list of collected works. The bulk of the piece divides Godber's work into five broad categories - family/biographical plays, plays focusing on youth and youth culture, sport or "running about" plays, "Britons abroad" and plays chronicling national obsessions. These categories are each analysed with reference to Godber's work. The last two pages list Godber's screenplays, television scipts, periodical publications, unpublished plays and academic reviews of his work. It is word processed and 20 pages long. This is possibly the article intended for the Dictionary of National Biography, eventually published in 2001.
