World Encyclopedia of Contemporary Theatre (WECT) is the largest,
international co-operative undertaking in the history of world
theatre. In six outstanding volumes WECT documents artistic
development all over the world, country by country, region by
region. International and in depth, WECT's coverage includes
playwriting, music theatre, dance theatre, theatre for young
audiences, puppet theatre, design, architecture and developments in
theatre technology, theatre training, criticism and scholarship. An
incredible accomplishment, WECT is a project of The International
Theatre Institute, The International Federation for Theatre
Research, The International Association of Libraries and Museums of
the Performing Arts, and The International Association of Theatre
Critics with the support of UNESCO and the UNESCO World Decade for
Cultural Development. The volumes record and analyse world theatre
in some 160 countries, from 1945 to the present day. Written by
leading scholars, critics and theatre practitioners from each
country and edited by authorities in each region, WECT explores
through text and illustration the relationship between each
national theatre community and the unique society from which it
springs. Key Features: * Extensive coverage - world theatre in more
than 160 countries is documented and analyzed offering a complete
