Beschreibung
"Tracy C. Davis is a leading performance historian, and in "Stages of Emergency "she applies her considerable skills to a kind of 'play' that permeated the consciousness and determined much social reality in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom during the Cold War. The story she tells, and her analysis of it, goes to the very heart of what these societies were and are."--Richard Schechner, author of "Performance Studies: An Introduction"
