Recenzje

"When this anthology knocks at your door, open it and join the dance. Combining the canonic and the unexpected, Paola S. Hernández and Analola Santana have assembled here an impressive team of collaborators in order to embrace and interrogate the full performatic complexity of our Latinx histories. The book will foster many critical re-examinations and controversies in the years to come. This is an indispensable contribution to our field." Leo Cabranes-Grant, University of California, Santa Bárbara/Changó

"Editors Paola S. Hernández and Analola Santana have curated an eminently useful collection of concise but meaty introductions to fifty of the Latinx Americas' greatest theatre and performance artists and groups. Ranging from Aguirre to Yuyachkani, their collective activity spans the last seven decades and the entire hemisphere; and the essays, written by some of today's leading theatre and performance studies scholars, will leave the reader eager for more volumes." Jean Graham-Jones, Lucille Lortel Professor of Theatre, CUNY, New York
