Description and Table of Contents
Description
A comprehensive overview of theatre in today's Europe, exploring its national characteristics, key themes and leading figures.
Designed for students and scholars of contemporary and European theatre in the UK, US and English speaking world.
No other book on this topic has remotely the same breadth and depth of coverage - they consist of either more focused studies or much wider, low level surveys of world theatre.
