this is the first book to consider the formation, history, and practice
of Asian Canadian theatre. As the foundational volume in the development
of a new field of study, it includes essays by major voices in Asian
Canadian Studies and Asian North American Theatre Studies, as well as
some of Canada’s top theatre practitioners. Contributors include Donald
Goellnicht, Christine Kim, Ric Knowles, Christopher Lee, Dongshin Chang, Esther Kim
Lee, Daphne Lei, Siyuan Lui, Xiaoping Li, Jane Luk, Sean Metzger, Anne
Nothof, June Park, Thy Phu, Jenna Rodgers, Shelley Scott, Karen Shimikawa,
Eleanor Ty, Donald Woo, David Yee, and Jean Yoon. The book offers essays
that contextualize the development of Asian Canadian theatre, celebrate
its founders, analyze some of its most significant achievements, theorize
its work, and articulate its major contribution to Canadian theatre
in the twentyfirst century.
