Focusing on challenging curricular, pedagogical, and political issues in college theater education, this volume discusses the possibilities of educational reform in the context of reshaping politics in our culture and society. Topics examined include: the challenges and possibilities of teaching theater in postmodern culture; issues of democracy and methods of empowering students in classroom and production work; ways for theory, pedagogy, and production to inform each other; and, strategies for dealing with differences in theater education.
