Description
Theatre and Globalization by Dan Rebellato explores how theatre reflects our evolving understanding of the world. Drawing on a wide range of sources from ancient tragedy to modern advertising, this book argues that theatre plays a crucial role in resisting the spread of global market forces. Through its examination of various theatrical works, including those by Aeschylus and Chekhov, as well as contemporary companies like Complicite, Rebellato reveals how theatre can serve as a site of resistance to the homogenizing effects of globalization. The book offers a provocative perspective on the importance of theatre in our globalized world. Foreword by Mark Ravenhill adds context to this thought-provoking analysis, making Theatre and Globalization a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts alike.
