Theatre and Empire - Paperback
by Benjamin Poore (Author), Margherita Laera (Editor), Natalie Alvarez (Editor)
The historical age of empires may be over, but empire, as an idea, continues to exercise a hold over our imaginations. This compelling examination of the relationship between theatre and empire begins with potential definitions and theories of empire, suggesting how we might think of these two notions together and how we might see empire itself as theatre. A variety of case studies are then used to explore theatre in light of both cultural and economic imperialism.
