"Theatre And Performance In East Africa | Theatre And Performance

Theatre and Performance in East Africa looks at indigenous performances to unearth the aesthetic principles sensibilities and critical framework that underpin African performance and theatre. The book develops new paradigms for thinking about African performance in general through the construction of a critical framework that addresses questions concerning performance particularities and coherences challenging previous understandings. To this end it establishes a common critical and theoretical framework for indigenous performance using case studies from East Africa that are also reflected elsewhere in the continent. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of theatre and performance especially those with an interest in the close relationship between theatre and performance with culture.|Theatre and Performance in East Africa | Theatre and Performance
