Cathy Turner and Synne K. Behrndt
Dramaturgy and Performance
Translated by Eva Mahkovic
Expected Publication: November 2011

 

The authors are addressing the current phenomenon of increasing interest in the dramaturgy as the segment of theatre engaging, characterised by its elusive or at least double nature: it can be identified both as a critical concept and a practical process. The book is conceived in three sections and illustrated by examples from practice. It covers both of the mentioned perspectives, identifies various uses and meanings of dramaturgy and devises the guidelines for its further exploration.
