Decolonizing the Stage - Theatrical Syncretism and Post-Colonial Drama (Hardcover)

Decolonizing the Stage explores the way dramatists and directors from a wide number of post-colonial societies have attempted to fuse the performance idioms of their indigenous traditions with the Western theatrical form. It provides a theoretically sophisticated, cross-cultural comparative approach to a wide number of writers, regions, and theatre movements. These include Nobel Prize-winning authors such as Wole Soyinka, Derek Walcott, and Rabindranath Tagore.
