The world of theatre criticism is rapidly changing in its form,
function and modes of operation in the twenty-first century. The
dominance of the internet has led to a growing trend of
selfappointed theatre critics and bloggers who are changing the
focus and purpose of the discussion around live performance. Even
though the blogosphere has garnered suspicion and hostility from
some mainstream newspaper critics, it has also provided significant
intellectual and ideological challenges to the increasingly
conservative profile of the professional critic. This book features
16 commissioned contributions from scholars, arts journalists and
bloggers, as well as a small selection of innovative critical
practice. Authors from Australia, Canada, Croatia, Germany, Greece,
Italy, Latvia, Russia, the UK and the US share their perspectives
on relevant historical, theoretical and political contexts
influencing the development of the discipline, as well as specific
aspects of the contemporary practices and genres of theatre
criticism. The book features an introductory essay by its editor,
Duska Radosavljevic.
