Editorial Review
This impressive companion offers deep analysis and extensive international coverage of performances, contexts, theories and geographies. The eight terms that structure it creatively disrupt conventional perceptions of politics and standard ways of thinking about theatre's impact. The length of each short essay belies both its complexity and its contribution to productive negotiations between theatre and politics.
