About this book
Reviews
'What the book provides is a superb way to begin to understand how rich the study of theatre and performance in the South Pacific may come to be...an extraordinarily valuable wide-angle glimpse of a diverse field.' - Sharon Mazer, Theatre Journal
'While Balme shines in his reading of the postcolonial politics that frame this type of theatrical setting, it is his larger argument about the performativity of cultural encounters...that constitutes his larger contribution to Pacific scholarship.' - Jane Desmond, The Contemporary Pacific
