The play was produced at the Phoenix Theatre in New York City in January 1980. It was directed by Robert Woodruff with Ellen Barkin in the lead role with Barbara Eda-Young playing opposite.[3] The UK GCSE curriculum has included Shout Across the River as a suggested drama text.[4] StorylineShout Across The River is centrally concerned with the troubled relationship between Mrs Forsythe and her wayward daughter Christine.[5] Christine has just been suspended from school with the threat that, if she does not report regularly to her social worker, she is danger of being forcibly detained. However, Christine’s behaviour is uninhibited and so she fails completely to reform or report. The tension builds as Christine works to dominate her mother.[6]Set on the edge of London, this play is about a family clinging to each other for survival whilst the “shadow of unemployment and recession” hangs very strongly in the air. Christine captures the tone of how she perceives the world in exclaiming, "This is the worst time to be alive, everybody knows that!"[7][8] References1. ^{{Cite web|url=http://collections.shakespeare.org.uk/search/archive/rscpr311978shr2-shout-across-the-river-ordinary-files-photographs-warehouse/view_as/grid/page/5199|title=Royal Shakespeare Company Archive|last=|first=|date=|website=|publisher=The Royal Shakespeare Company|access-date=}} 2. ^{{Cite journal|last=Coveney|first=Michael|year=22 September 1978|title=Shout Across the River, The Warehouse|url=|journal=Financial Times|volume=|pages=17|via=British Library Archives}} 3. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1979/11/28/archives/news-of-the-theater-last-licks-closing-has-it-a-future-phoenix-to.html?_r=0|title=Last Licks Closing; Has it a Future|last=Corry|first=John|date=28 Nov 1979|website=www.nytimes.com|publisher=New York Times|access-date=}} 4. ^{{Cite journal|last=|first=|year=2011|title=GCSE in Drama Teacher's Guide|url=http://cbac.co.uk/uploads/publications/gcse-teachersguide-drama.pdf?language_id=1|journal=Wjec Cbac|volume=|pages=29|via=}} 5. ^{{Cite journal|last=Cushman|first=Robert|year=4 September 1978|title=Theatre Reviews: Shout Across the River|url=|journal=The Observer|volume=|pages=|via=Proquest}} 6. ^{{Cite book|title=Stephen Poliakoff On Stage and Screen|last=Nelson|first=Robin|publisher=|year=|isbn=|location=|pages=|quote=|via=}} 7. ^{{Cite book|title=Poliakoff Plays: 1 Clever Soldiers; Hitting Town; City Sugar; Shout Across the River; American Days; Strawberry Fields|last=Poliakoff|first=Stephen|publisher=Methuen Drama|year=1990|isbn=9780413624604|location=London|pages=|quote=|via=}} 8. ^{{Cite book|title=Stephen Poliakoff On Stage and Screen|last=Nelson|first=Robin|publisher=Methuen Drama|year=2011|isbn=978-1-4081-3108-4|location=Bloomsbury Publishing, London|pages=81–89|quote=|via=}} 1 : 1979 plays |
