COMMUNITY POLITICS AND THE PEACE PROCESS IN CON...

This book examines theatre within the context of the Northern Ireland conflict and peace
process  with reference to a wide variety of plays  theatre productions and community
engagements within and across communities. The author clarifies both the nature of the social
and political vision of a number of major contemporary Northern Irish dramatists and the manner
in which this vision is embodied in text and in performance. The book identifies and celebrates
a tradition of playwrights and drama practitioners who  to this day  challenge and question all
Northern Irish ideologies and propose alternative paths. The author's analysis of a selection
of Northern Irish plays  written and produced over the course of the last thirty years or so 
illustrates the great variety of approaches to ideology in Northern Irish drama  while
revealing a common approach to staging the conflict and the peace process  with a distinct
emphasis on utopian performatives and the possibility of positive change.
