Topics covered include:

  • dramatic genres, from tragedy to political documentary

  • theories of performance

  • the history of the theatre in the West

With a glossary, chapter summaries and suggestions for further reading throughout, Theatre Studies: the Basics remains the ideal starting point for anyone new to the subject.
