Topics covered include:

- dramatic genres, from tragedy to political documentary

- theories of performance

- the history of the theatre in the West

- acting, directing and scenography

With a glossary, chapter summaries and suggestions for further reading throughout, Theatre Studies: the Basics remains the ideal starting point for anyone new to the subject.
