serves as a broad survey of theatre and performance practices related to the experience of global movements, both in historical and contemporary contexts. The volume is structured in four sections: the first dedicated to the major theoretical concepts related to the field of theatre and migration (such as exile, refugee, displacement, nomadism and globalization), while the second provides a historical overview of practices of migration that have led to what has become the norm today. The third and fourth sections are devoted to several case studies across different geographies and time periods that highlight, describe and analyse different theatre practices related to migration, privileging the twentieth and twenty-first centuries and particular countries such as the United States and Germany, where immigration has become such a prominent and urgent topic of discourse. As timely as it is comprehensive, this handbook will serve as a prestigious reference work to help theatre practitioners, students, scholars, and educators navigate the complex field of theatre and migration.weiterlesen
