Theatre and Christianity by Elizabeth Schafer
This critical new title in the Theatre & series explores the fluctuating relationship between theatre and Christianity by focusing on key points of intersection - the challenge of realism and the real, the treatment of women and the role of amateur performance.
Engaging, creative and thoughtful, Theatre and Christianity offers fresh insights through discussing Shakespeare, Passion Plays and Jerry Springer: the Opera* Jolyon Mitchell, University of Edinburgh, UK *
Schafer’s compact argument shows how Christianity and theatre are, simultaneously, irreconcilably hostile to and wholly dependent on each other, and, thus, existentially intertwined. * David Mason, Rhodes College, USA *
