In this critical anthology of essays and interviews, some of the world's
most respected scholars and practitioners writing and working in the area of
South African theatre today share their detailed examinations and insights
on the complex and contradictory context of Post-Apartheid society. Loosely
grouped into the categories of Theatre, Drama, and Performance, the essays
collected here offer a sampling of work being staged, produced, and written
in the country today. The contributors document, contrast, and analyse
significant case studies, representing examples from site-specific
performance to new South African plays, from traditional indigenous
performance practice to the reimagining of Western classics. The anthology
takes the year of South Africa's first democratic election, 1994, as its
departure point and includes a broad range of topics that capture the
current paradigm.
