What are the Names of different European Plays from the 20th century?

Question

Drama Plays from Europe During the 20th Century.
Or like what type of plays did they have around the time of World War I and World War II

Answer 1

Early 20th century: The Norwegian Henrik Ibsen (A Doll's House, Hedda Gabbler) is often thought to be the father of modern theater. He influenced the writing of the Russian Anton Chekov (Uncle Vanya, The Cherry Orchard). Irishman George Bernard Shaw (Arms and the Man, Pygmalion). Swede August Strindberg (Miss Julie, The Dance of Death).
Post WWI: The Germans Bertolt Brecht (Threepenny Opera, The Good Person of Sezuan), Marieluise Fleisser (Purgatory in Ingolstadt). Italian Luigi Pirandello (Six Characters in Search of an Author). Spaniard Frederico Garcia Lorca (Blood Wedding, The House of Bernardo Alba).
WWII and beyond: Jean Paul Sartre (No Exit), a French philosopher and writer. Frenchman Jean Genet (The Balcony, The Blacks). Englishman Harold Pinter (The Birthday Party, The Homecoming).

Answer 2

Mehitable, your knowledge of drama is good, and, technically, you are correct in classifying George Bernard Shaw, Strindberg, Ibsen, and Chekov as 20th. century writers as they all died after 1901. However, they are all basically 19th. century writers. Tom Stoppard, Arthur Miller, and Bertolt Brecht are properly 20th. century writers. Still, it is right to say that GBS and others were the writers whose plays were most popular at the beginning of the 20th. century.

Answer 3

Look up George Bernard Shaw --- you can't get a better introduction anywhere.
