A companion to American Theatre Ensembles Volume 1, this volume
charts the development and achievements of theatre companies
working after 1995, bringing together the diffuse generation of
ensembles working within a context of media saturation and
epistemological and social fragmentation. Ensembles examined
include Rude Mechs, The Builders Association, Pig Iron, Radiohole,
The Civilians and 600 Highwaymen. Introductory chapters provide a
sweeping overview of ensemble-based creation within the general
historical and cultural contexts of the period, followed by a
detailed study of the evolution of ensemble-based work.
Contributors examine matters such as influence, funding, production
and legacies, as well as the forms of collective devising and
creation, while presenting close readings of the companies' most
prominent works. The volume features detailed case studies of the 6
companies from the period and cover: * A history of development and
methods * Key productions and projects * Critical reception * A
chronology of significant productions US ensemble companies since
1995 have revolutionized the form and content of contemporary
performance, influencing experimental as well as mainstream
practice. This volume provides the first encompassing study of this
vital development in contemporary American theatre by mapping its
evolution and key developments.
