Review

"Indispensible..."The Performance of Power" is like a hand grenade tossed into the rather sedate world of Theatre History and Dramatic Criticism. It is an important book which should be read by all involved in the field of study so that they may be constantly reminded of what gender, race, and prejudice may be blinding them to. It challenges, it questions, but most importantly it offers suggestions for changes and revisions of practice...A most invaluable "vade mecum" for the young research student."--"Theatre Journal"
