New Theatre Quarterly 63
New Theatre Quarterly provides a lively international forum where theatrical scholarship and practice can meet, and where prevailing dramatic assumptions can be subjected to vigorous critical questioning. It shows that theatre history has a contemporary relevance, that theatre studies needs a methodology, and that theatre criticism needs a language. The journal publishes news, analysis and debate within the field of theatre studies. Articles in volume 63 include: Ventriloquism: the Voices of the Dead; Bodies, Rest and Motion: from Shiva's Cosmic Dance to Chaos Theory's Biodance; Computer Intelligence in the Theatre; Burmese Nights: Myanmar's Pagoda Festival in the Age of the Hollywood Titanic; Censoring the Uncensored: the Case of Children in Uniform; Henry Irving and the Staging of Spiritualism; Boal and the Shifting Sands: Unpolitical Master Swimmer.
