About this title

Synopsis

This title presents a range of essays, interviews and performance texts that illustrate and examine the process, evolution and dynamics of making theatre in the dawning moments of the 21st century. It brings together writings by artists, intellectuals and art activists who explore contemporary practices within multicultural, intercultural and ethnically specific theaters. This provocative and dynamic resource brings to the fore the critical issues surrounding the intricate intersections of race, gender, class, sexuality and national and global politics as represented in contemporary theatre.
