Challenging the idea of a singular narrative of Canadian theatre history and centering on questions of historiography and methodology, the essays in this collection investigate performances that have been excluded from mainstream theatre histories and re-evaluate well-known theatre movements to explore cultural memory. That is to say, how do we remember performances of the past and why do some stories survive while others have been largely forgotten? Contributors draw on recent critical developments in performance studies, historiography, Indigenous studies, and hemispheric studies to explore topics ranging from the affective labour performed in life-writing by World War I veterans, to a reconsideration of the role of dramaturges in the alternative theatre movement, to a microhistory of petitions protesting minstrel performers appearing in Toronto, to a timely consideration of digital technologies in performance art documentation."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Theater $z Canada $x History. 650 0 $a Canadian drama $x History and criticism. 650 7 $a Canadian drama. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00845094 650 7 $a Theater. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01149217 651 7 $a Canada. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204310 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 700 1 $a Davis-Fisch, Heather, $d 1979- $e editor. 830 0 $a New essays on Canadian theatre ; $v v. 7. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214021049.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=904B6C48580511E8A8F83C5097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
