The communities involved include poverty-stricken children in Ethiopia and the Indian sub-continent, disenfranchised Native Americans in the USA and young black men in Britain, victims of violence in South Africa and Northern Ireland, and a threatened agricultural town in Italy. The book asserts the value of performance as a vital agent of necessary social change, and makes its arguments through the close examination, from 'inside' practice, of the success - not always complete - of specific projects in their practical and cultural contexts. Practitioners and commentators ask how performance in its widest sense can play a part in community activism on a scale larger than the individual, 'one-off' project by helping communities find their own liberating and creative voices. 410 0$aCambridge studies in modern theatre. 517 3 $aTheatre & Empowerment 606 $aTheater and society 615 0$aTheater and society. 676 $a792.013 702 $aBoon$b Richard 702 $aPlastow$b Jane 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784415003321 996 $aTheatre and empowerment$91886146 997 $aUNINA
