Rezensionen

"Theatre-Making puts to rest some outdated binaries between text-oriented and "alternative" approaches. It is subtle in exploring the complexities and interrelationships of different modes of practise, and carefully attends to how apprently similar practises have evolved in different areas and traditions. This volume, which charts the history and dynamics of how practises emerge and overlap, will be invaluable to teachers and students of contemporary theatre." - Greath White, Central School of Speech and Drama, University of London, UK
