Living Theatre: A History of Global Theatres

By Megan E. Geigner, Edwin Wilson, Alvin Goldfarb

The leading textbook on theater history now brings a truly global approach to the course. In the Eighth Edition's fully reorganized table of contents, new chapters on early African theatre and classical Asian theatre appear alongside an overhauled Part 3: "Global Theatres from 1800 to Today." In the Norton Illumine Ebook, new Check Your Understanding questions will help make the new edition's approach more easily digestible for students right as they first encounter the material. Living Theatre shows that not only is theatre alive and evolving, but so is theatre history.
