Theatre and Performance in the Asia-Pacific is an analysis of the
theatrical imaginative as it manifests in theatre and performance
in Australia, Indonesia, Japan and Singapore. The sites encompass
marked differences in language, performance, history and politics,
and variations in the solidity and volatility of their imagined
worlds. Recognizing these differences, the book explores contrasts
in each nation as it identifies with the region and the cultural
interconnections that support a regional identity. While the four
nations demonstrate degrees of ambivalence and connection to the
Asia-Pacific as a region, the project argues that relations to
modernity and globalization are less nation-specific. The project
articulates a regional configuration of modernity which is
multiple, contradictory but nonetheless regional. Each nation has
in common the imperative to reconcile with and adapt to European
modernity in a way that renders global modernity multiple rather
than singular.
