'The author's profound knowledge of African theatrical practice has enabled him to present this highly topical account of modern drama.' Vladimir Klima, Archiv Orientali, Volume 51 'Speaking from experience [Etherton] is able to make a genuinely original contribution to the discussion of perennial problems: the transformation of oral into literary cultures; the relation between text and performance and the role of the theatre audience.' D. Bradby, Theatre Research International, 9 (3). 'This is an excellent book on which to start students, particularly as it has an easy and functional glossary for beginners at theatre in the front of the volume.' Elaine Savory, Research in African Literatures, Vol 15, No. 3.
