Download or read book Public Theatres and Theatre Publics written by Sara Freeman and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2012-03-15 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public Theatres and Theatre Publics presents sixteen focused investigations that connect theatre and performance studies with public sphere theory. The organizing critical lens of publics and publicness allows for the chapters to speak to one another other across time periods and geographies, inviting readers to think about how performing in public shapes and circulates concepts of identity, notions of taste or belonging, markers of class, and possibilities for political agency. Each essay presents a theorized case study that grapples with fundamental questions of how individuals perform in public contexts. The essays, written by a cross-section of prominent and emerging theatre and performance scholars, contribute new discussions and understandings of how theatre and performance work, as well as how publics, publicity, and modes of publicness have been constructed and contested over the last three centuries and in multiple national contexts including the US, Britain, France, Germany, Argentina and Egypt.

Book excerpt: "In Their Company is a long-awaited compendium of the voices of the American stage, presenting its most famous and gifted playwrights." "A play comes alive through the efforts of a community - actors, directors, producers, designers - and only in a moment that by its very nature cannot be recorded or repeated, but simply experienced. Like so many other works of art, a living piece of theater begins with a single idea, envisioned and cultivated in seclusion. It begins with the playwright." "Collins and Wishna set out photographing and interviewing dozens of accomplished American playwrights, in an attempt to capture that "beginning" - as well as the middle and never-arriving end - of their experience. In Their Company celebrates these gifted artists, presenting sixty-one playwrights."--BOOK JACKET.
