"The Routledge Companion to Latine Theatre and Performance traces how manifestations of Latine self-determination in contemporary U.S. theatre and performance practices affirm the value of Latine life in a theatrical culture that constantly and consciously strives to undermine it. This collection draws on fifty interdisciplinary contributions written by some of the leading Latine theatre and performance scholars and practitioners in the United States to highlight evolving and recurring strategies of world making, activism, and resistance taken by Latine culture makers to gain political agency on and off the stage. The project reveals the continued growth of Latine theatre and performance, through essays covering, but not limited to playwriting, casting practices, representation, training, wrestling with anti-Blackness and anti-Indigeneity, theatre for young audiences, community empowerment, and the market forces that govern the U.S. theatre industry. This book enters conversations in performance studies, ethnic studies, American studies, and Latina/e/o/x studies by taking up performance scholar Diana Taylor's call to consider the ways that "embodied and performed acts generate, record, and transmit knowledge." This collection is an essential resource for students, scholars and theatremakers seeking to explore, understand and further the huge range and significance of Latine performance"--
