Volume 21 of Theatre Symposium presents essays that explore the
intricate and vital relationships between theatre, religion, and
ritual.
Whether or not theatre arose from ritual and/or religion, from
prehistory to the present there have been clear and vital
connections among the three. "Ritual, Religion, and Theatre,"
volume 21 of the annual journal "Theatre Symposium," presents a
series of essays that explore the intricate and vital relationships
that exist, historically and today, between these various modes of
expression and performance.
The essays in this volume discuss the stage presence of the
spiritual meme; ritual performance and spirituality in "The Living
Theatre"; theatricality, themes, and theology in James Weldon
Johnson's "God's Trombones"; Jordan Harrison's "Act a Lady" and the
ritual of queerness; "Gerpla" and national identity in Iceland;
confession in "Hamlet" and "Measure for Measure"; Christian
liturgical drama; Muslim theatre and performance; cave rituals and
the Brain's Theatre; and other, more general issues.
Edited by E. Bert Wallace, this latest publication by the largest
regional theatre organization in the United States collects the
most current scholarship on theatre history and theory.
