Both dramatic and musical theater are part of the tradition that has made Austria - especially Vienna - and the old Habsburg lands synonymous with high culture in Central Europe. Many works; often controversial originally but now considered as classics; are still performed regularly in Vienna; Prague; Budapest; or Krakow. This volume not only offers an excellent overview of the theatrical history of the region; it is also an innovative; cross-disciplinary attempt to analyse the inner workings and dynamics of theater through a discussion of the interplay between society; the audience; and performing artists.
