Cover of Richard Schechner: Future of Ritual (PDF)

In The Future of Ritual, Richard Schechner explores the nature of ritualised behaviour and its relationship to performance and politics. A brilliant and uncontainable examination of cultural expression and communal action, The Future of Ritual asks pertinent questions about art, theatre and the changing meaning of ‘culture’ in today’s intercultural world. An exciting new work by the author of Performance Theory.
