Description:... 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. Topics covered in NTQ 53 include: Playing (with) Shakespeare: Bryony Lavery's Ophelia and Jane Prendergast's Hamlet; High-Engender'd Battles: Power in Queen Lear; Folk Theatre in Brazil: the Origins and the Legacy; Theatrical Pillage in Asia: Aspects of Intercultural Traffic; Film and Theatre in Hong Kong: the Cultural and Economic Symbiosis; Harley Granville Barker: the First English Chekhovian?; Body Language: the Documentation of Women's Bodies in Theatre; Towards and Ethnography of Rehearsal.
