[(The Performance Studies Reader )] [Author: Henry Bial] [May-2007]

by Henry Bial

The Performance Studies Reader is a lively and much-needed anthology of critical writings on the burgeoning discipline of performance studies. It provides an overview of the full range of performance theory for undergraduates at all levels, and beginning graduate students in performance studies, theatre, performing arts and cultural studies. The collection is designed as a companion to Richard Schechner's popular Performance An Introduction (Routledge, 2002), but is also ideal as a stand-alone text.
