[ED: Taschenbuch], [PU: BRILL ACADEMIC PUB], AUSTRALIAN THEATRE in the 1990s is a vigorous enterprise displaying the energies and contradictions of a multicultural society. This collection of essays by leading scholars of Australian theatre and drama surveys the emergence and directions of the new theatrical energies which have challenged or redefined the Australian 'mainstream': Aboriginal, multicultural, Asian-Australian, women's, gay and lesbian, community and young people's theatre and charts the exciting growth of physical theatre. The contributors assess the impact of evolving funding and industrial priorities, and examine the theoretical and cultural debates surrounding Australian playwriting and theatre-making from the 1970s Vietnam dramas to the postmodern present. Table of contents: Foreword by the Series Editor Veronica Kelly. Acknowledgements. Contributors. List of Illustrations. Veronica KELLY: Old patterns, new energies. Richard FOTHERINGHAM: Boundary riders and claim jumpers: the Australian theatre industry. Elizabeth PERKINS: Plays about the Vietnam War: the agon of the young. Jacqueline LO: Dis/orientations: contemporary Asian-Australian theatre. Helen GILBERT: Reconciliation? Aboriginality and Australian theatre in the 1990s. Bruce PARR: From gay and lesbian to queer theatre. Helen THOMSON: Recent Australian women's writing for the stage. Joanne TOMPKINS: Inter-referentiality: interrogating multicultural Australian drama. Tony MITCHELL: Maintaining cultural integrity: Teresa Crea, Doppio Teatro, Italo-Australian theatre and critical multiculturalism. Geoffrey MILNE: Theatre in education: dead or alive? Paul MAKEHAM: Community stories: 'Aftershocks' and verbatim theatre. Tom BURVILL: Sidetrack Performance Group and the post-modern turn. Alison RICHARDS: Melbourne Women's Circus: theatre, feminism, community. Peta TAIT: Performing sexed bodies in physical theatre. Works Cited. Index of Proper Names. Illustrations.
