[...] It will be of value to scholars of contemporary theatre who wish to expand their repertoire of practices and locations in which a diversity of projects are taking place. It opens out a range of readings of community in relation to theatre and performs a valuable contribution to thinking about the complexities of theatre in relation to the communities within which it exists. It also encourages the reader to think about the communities that theatre, and creativity more generally, can build.' -- Alison Jeffers, New Theatre Quarterly Author InformationDr Szabolcs Musca is research fellow at the Centre for Theatre Research (CET) at the University of Lisbon (Portugal), founding director of New Tides Platform (UK) and project lead of Migrant Dramaturgies Network, currently leading an international research project on theatre and migration in Europe.
