Emphasizing the resilience of theatre arts in the midst of
significant political change, Theatre After Empire spotlights the
emergence of new performance styles in the wake of collapsed
political systems. Centering on theatrical works from the late
nineteenth century to the present, twelve original essays written
by prominent theatre scholars showcase the development of new work
after social revolutions, independence campaigns, the overthrow of
monarchies, and world wars. Global in scope, this book features
performances occurring across Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe,
and the Middle East. The essays attend to a range of live
events-theatre, dance, and performance art-that stage subaltern
experiences and reveal societies in the midst of cultural,
political, and geographic transition. This collection is an
engaging resource for students and scholars of theatre and
performance; world history; and those interested in
postcolonialism, multiculturalism, and transnationalism.
