Description
Theatre and Human Rights by Paul Rae This book explores the complex relationship between theatre and human rights, examining the ways in which performance can be used to promote and challenge dignity. Drawing on international examples, it offers a critical analysis of where this debate should go next. With its impassioned plays, inspired activism, and outspoken artists, theatre has long provided a platform for promoting human rights. However, the relationship between theatre and human rights is not without controversy. This book provides a timely and thought-provoking examination of the key issues at stake. Foreword by Rabih Mrove
