Peer-reviewed journal of theater history and scholarship published
annually by the Southeastern Theatre Conference (SETC)
Addresses the ways that theatre both shapes cross-cultural dialogue
and is itself, in turn, shaped by those forces. Globalization may
strike many as a phenomenon of our own historical moment, but it is
truly as old as civilization: we need only look to the ancient Silk
Road linking the Far East to the Mediterranean in order to find
some of the earliest recorded impacts of people and goods crossing
borders. Yet, in the current cultural moment, tensions are high due
to increased migration, economic unpredictability, complicated acts
of local and global terror, and heightened political divisions all
over the world. Thus globalization seems new and a threat to our
ways of life, to our nations, and to our cultures. In what ways
have theatre practitioners, educators, and scholars worked to
support cross-cultural dialogue historically? And in what ways
might theatre embrace the complexities and contradictions inherent
in any meaningful exchange? The essays in Theatre Symposium, Volume
25 reflect on these questions. Featured in Theatre Symposium,
