Next Up Downtown: A New Generation of Ensemble Performance by Paige McGinley
“Staging scenes in both English and Japanese, Collins and his team create a transnational ghost story for the 21st century, one that draws on medieval Japanese noh’s evocations of ghosts, the spare, still violence of Samuel Beckett and Harold Pinter, urban legends of subway murders, and tropes from Japanese horror films.”

The Drama Review focuses on performances in their social, economic, and political contexts.

With an emphasis on experimental, avant-garde, intercultural, and interdisciplinary performance, TDR covers dance, theatre, performance art, visual art, popular entertainment, media, sports, rituals, and performance in politics and everyday life.

Long known as the basic resource for keeping up with performance studies in all aspects, TDR continues to be a lively forum of debate on important performances in every medium, setting, and culture.
