This provocative book meets the supposedly 'live' practices of performance and the 'no-longer-live' historical past at their own dangerous crossroads. Focussing on the 'and' of the title, it addresses the tangled relations between the terms, practices, ideas, and aims embedded in these compatriot - but often oppositional - arts and acts of time.
A wide-ranging set of essays that explain what theatre history is and why we need to engage with it.
A comprehensive history of Russian theatre, written by an international team of experts.
