A Cultural History of Theatre in the Modern Age offers an interdisciplinary exploration of theatre and performance within their social and material contexts, spanning from the late 19th century to the early 2000s. It highlights significant developments and trends that exemplify and challenge the various meanings of the term \"modern\" and the identity of modernist theatre and performance. The book is extensively illustrated with 40 images and comprises ten chapters, each focusing on a distinct theme: institutional frameworks, social functions, sexuality and gender, the environment of theatre, circulation, interpretations, communities of production, repertoire and genres, technologies of performance, and knowledge transmission.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 566g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 170 x 244 x 22 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781350277779\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44094254678266,"sku":"9781350277779","price":25.64,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646236857875_book.jpg?v=1646930954","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/a-cultural-history-of-theatre-in-the-modern-age-9781350277779","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
