Textul de pe ultima copertă
This
collection
of
essays
investigates
the
way
Africa
has
been
portrayed
on
the
London
stage
from
the
1950s
to
the
present.
It
focuses
on
whether
—
and,
if
so,
to
what
extent
—
the
Africa
that
emerges
from
the
London
scene
is
subject
to
stereotype,
and/or
in
which
ways
the
reception
of
audiences
and
critics
have
contributed
to
an
understanding
of
the
continent
and
its
arts.
The
collection,
divided
into
two
parts,
brings
together
well-established
academics
and
emerging
scholars,
as
well
as
playwrights,
directors
and
performers
currently
active
in
London.
With
a
focus
on
Wole
Soyinka,
Athol
Fugard,
Bola
Agbaje,
Biyi
Bandele,
and
Dipo
Agboluaje,
amongst
others,
the
volume
examines
the
work
of
key
companies
such
as
Tiata
Fahodzi
and
Talawa,
as
well
as
newer
companies
Two
Gents,
Iroko
Theatre
and
Spora
Stories.
Interviews
with
Rotimi
Babatunde,
Ade
Solanke
and
Dipo
Agboluaje
on
the
contemporary
London
scene
are
also
included.
