Post-Colonial Drama: Theory, Practice, Politics

Description

Post-Colonial Drama is the first full-length study to examine how performance practices intersect with and develop an understanding of post-colonial theories. Addressing the specific ways that performance has been instrumental in resisting the continuing effects of imperialism, this study considers how post-colonial theatre can be seen as a reaction against colonial enterprises.

Gilbert and Tompkins discuss a variety of plays from Australia, Africa, Canada, New Zealand, the Caribbean and other former colonial regions. Critiquing anthropological interpretations of drama, they call for a culturally specific approach to the analysis of plays from other cultures. Post-Colonial Drama combines a rich intersection of post-colonial and performance theories with close attention to the play texts themselves.
