Jan Cohen-Cruz and Mady Schutzman (eds), A Boal Companion: dialogues on theatre and cultural politics (New York and London: Routledge, 2006) : [book review]

"This collection of essays is broad in scope, its aims clearly articulated by the editors in their introduction. The essays, they assert, will address the fact that Theatre of the Oppressed (TO) is 'both under theorized and insufficiently contextualized within a broader domain of companion theories and practices' (I). The various techniques that constitute Theatre of the Oppressed are to be considered in the 'fields of cultural studies, political science, ethics, humor studies, systems theory, theories of space, performance art, race theory, trauma theory, and feminism' (2), to name but a few."--p. 127.
