During the twentieth century, an increasingly diverse range of
buildings and spaces was used for theatre. Theatre architecture was
re-formed by new approaches to staging and performance, while
theatre was often thought to have a reforming role in society.
Innovation was accompanied by the revival and reinterpretation of
older ideas. The contributors to this volume explore these ideas in
a variety of contexts, from detailed discussions of key architects'
work (including Denys Lasdun, Peter Moro, Cedric Price and Heinrich
Tessenow) to broader surveys of theatre in West Germany and Japan.
Other contributions examine the MalmA Stadsteater, 'ideal' theatres
in post-war North America, 'found space' in 1960s New York, and
Postmodernity in 1980s East Germany. Together these essays shed new
light on this complex building type and also contribute to the
wider architectural history of the twentieth century.
