'...Palgrave Macmillan's excellent new outward-looking, eclectic Theatre& ... series.These short books, written by leading theatre academics, do much to reintroduce some of the brightest names in theatre academia to the general reader.

He explains core ideas, such as globalization, localization and cosmopolitanism, with notable clarity...' - Theatre Research International
