  • Promoting dialogue and understanding across different perspectives
  • Building empathy and compassion for those who are different from us

Through case studies of innovative theatre projects from around the world, Towards Civic Theatre examines how performance can create spaces for public deliberation, build community, and challenge the status quo.

These case studies include:

This book provides a compelling vision for the future of theatre, and it offers practical tools for artists, activists, and educators who want to use theatre to make a positive impact on the world.
