Theatre and Environment cover

This exciting new title in the Theatre And series explores how theatre and the environment have informed and continue to inform each other, considering both what theatre can do for the environment and what the environment can do for theatre. Drawing on a diverse range of case studies from writers and theatre-makers, Vicky Angelaki encourages a sense of responsibility towards the environment and examines how it is being handled by artists and performers in our time. Timely and topical, this concise introduction is ideal for undergraduate and postgraduate students of theatre and performance studies with an interest in the environment, contemporary theatre-making or site-specific performance.

A vibrant and timely book, bursting with diverse performance practices engaged with pressing environmental concerns. Angelaki offers capacious provocations that will encourage those who make theatre to confront the urgency of non-human/human interconnection for years to come. * Evelyn O'Malley, University of Exeter, UK *
