There is a growing interest in "dramaturgy" as a critical concept and as a practical process.The book outlines different perspectives on the terms "dramaturgy" and "the dramaturg" and aims to introduce both concept and practice to those encountering the subject for the first time. Using case studies drawn from contemporary practice and suggesting areas of further study, the authors provide a strong insight into contemporary debates and new directions for the future.
