Description - The World of Theatre by Ian Herbert
Published regularly to coincide with the Congress of the International Theatre Institute, (the UNESCO body that looks after the interests of the world theatre community), The World of Theatre is an on-the-spot account of current theatre activity across six continents. The year 2000 edition covers the three seasons from 1996-7 to 1998-99, in over 60 countries - more than ever before. The content of the book is as varied as the theatre scenes it describes, from magisterial round-ups by leading critics in Europe (Peter Hepple of The Stage ) and North America (Jim O'Quinn of American Theatre ) to what are sometimes literally reports from the battlefield in war-torn countries such as Iran or Sierra Leone. These authoritative essays, most of them illustrated, provide an essential update to the historical picture presented in Routledge's World Encyclopedia of Contemporary Theatre.
Coverage includes: Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Belgium (French and Flemish comuunities), Benin, Bulgaria, Canada (Quebec), China, Columbia, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Ecuador, Egypt, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, India, Iran, Ireland, Japan, Jordan, Kenya, Korea, Kuwait, Latvia, Lebanon, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sri Lanka, Sweden, Switzerland, Tunisia, Turkey, UK, Ukraine, Uruguay, USA, Venezuela, Wales, Zaire/Congo.
