Recenzii

'This author's work is widely read and admired by scholars active in the field of theatre studies ... her scholarship is careful and extensive, and her dieas clear and well expressed.' - Lizbeth Goodman, University of Surrey

'A much needed book.' - Richard Schechner, New York University

'Kruger's research is impressive: thorough, wide-ranging, and clearly documented with an excellent bibliography of scripts and secondary sources. The Drama of South Africa is certain to become a cornerstone of all subsequent studies of South African theatre, and an often-cited reference in studies of African and postcolonial theatre more generally.' - Catherine M. Cole, Theatre Journal

'A much needed textbook for students of drama and theatre.' - Artsmart

'Loren Kruger has done the South African theatre research community a singular service with her attempt to break through the artificial barriers of the apartheid cultural heritage it is both timely and valuable.' - Temple Hauptfleisch, Research in African Literatures

'The Drama of South Africa is an outstanding book it should be read by all who care about (per)forming post-apartheid society.' - Simon Lewis, H-Net Review
