520 |a "This volume of newly commissioned essays about Indigenous performance is the first in which all of the contributors are Indigenous artists or academics. Scholars were invited to write essays on some aspect of Indigenous performance and artists were asked to contribute statements on whatever they felt was important to them as theatre creators. As with any good assembly of like-minded members, themes and observations emerged, dovetailing and echoing each other, touching on theatre training, cultural identity, Indigenous theatre history, and claiming space, among others. A companion to the existing two-volume anthology Staging Coyote{u2019}s Dream, the authors gathered here{u2014}identifying as Cree, Mohawk, Creek, Ntlakapamux, Stó:lō, and many other nations{u2014}open a conversation, inviting more voices to join in illuminating the history of Indigenous performance in Canada and blazing a trail forward."--Publisher's website.
