Reviews

“The Palgrave Handbook of Theatre and Migration is a topical collection that references a wealth of critical perspectives on different aspects of migration in both historical and contemporary contexts. While primarily intended for theatre and performance readership, it would certainly be of interest to scholars, educators, and students across arts and humanities and especially cultural and migration studies.” (Szabolcs Musca, European Journal of Theatre and Performance, Issue 8, December, 2024)  “This handbook is a timely intervention in theatre and performance studies. This large volume of sixty chapters broadly covers themes such as refugees, migrants, exile, globalization and cosmopolitanism. … With such contrasting contributions, this handbook will appeal to scholars in anthropology, history, sociology, environmental or postcolonial studies, along with theatre and performance scholars and artists looking for inspiration. It is an essential publication addressing migration through theatre and performance as one of the most pressing challenges of our time.” (Beri Juraić, Theatre Research International, Vol. 49 (2), July, 2024)
