Review

"Critical Theory and Performance signals the self-empowered emergence of theatre and performance studies into the broader fray of contemporary scholarship... a first-of-its-kind resource which many scholars will keep close at hand and which future graduate students would do well to consider required reading for programs in theatre history, dramatic criticism, or performance studies."
