Media Reviews
'With 'devising' as the linchpin, the authors bring into dialogue an extraordinary array of aesthetic theories and practices, political ideologies and popular forms of entertainment, historical movements and critical thought. A must read for performance studies enthusiasts, scholars and practitioners alike, whether seeking a history or a guide-book.' - Mady Schutzman, CalArts (California Institute of the Arts)
