Table of ContentsReviewsEditors Marco Galea and Szabolcs Musca have gathered together an impressively expansive and international body of essays to create this volume. . . . 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. -- New Theatre Quarterly The different methods of theater making from within the communities rather than for the communities is another strong methodological strategy. . . . The rich background of the multiple authors adds a layer to their research and personal experience in engaging with marginalized communities. The book is focused on the teaching of performance as research on multiple levels--it provides innovative engagement tools to cater for different audiences; offers suggestions and strategies on how to deal with cultural heritage, memory, vulnerable groups, and forgotten theater spaces; and finally, imparts upon its reader a methodological approach for any theater practitioner on how to revive mythical and cultural stories by bringing the past to the present to discuss current issues. -- PARtake: The Journal of Performance as Research 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.
