Summary

New Theatre Quarterly provides a lively international forum where theatrical scholarship and practice can meet, and where prevailing dramatic assumptions can be subjected to vigorous critical questioning. It shows that theatre history has a contemporary relevance, that theatre studies need a methodology, and that theatre criticism needs a language. The journal publishes news, analysis and debate within the field of theatre studies. Articles in volume 67 include: Dramas of the Performative Society: Theatre at the End of its Tether; The Ethics of Indeterminacy: Theatre de Complicite's 'Mnemonic'; Prague Summer: Encounters with a Third Kind of Theatre; Puppetry and Patapysics: Populism and the Ubu Cycle; The Masks of Greek Tragedy as Point of Departure for Modern Performance; Stumbling in the Dark: Facets of Sensory Perception and Robert Wilson's 'H.G.' Installation; NTQ Checklist: Sarah Kane.
