Theater in New Zealand began as a tool of the British Empire,
imported along with Christianity, seeds, and other commodities as a
way of acculturating the indigenous Maori population. In the
decades since, it has been turned to different ends, and is now a
crucial outlet for the voices of the ever more diverse population
of New Zealanders. This collection gathers some of the most
interesting recent plays that engage explicitly with social issues,
which are organized so that, together, they present a vivid picture
of what it means to be living in New Zealand in the first decades
of the twenty-first century, as people grapple with lingering
colonialism and the increasing globalization of everyday life.
