Dramaturgy and Architecture: Theatre, Utopia and the Built Environment

Dramaturgy and Architecture approaches modern and postmodern theatre’s contribution to the way we think about the buildings and spaces we inhabit. It discusses in detail ways in which theatre and performance have critiqued and intervened in everyday spaces, modelled our dreams or fears and made proposals for the future.
