New Theatre Quarterly provides a lively international forum where theatrical scholarship and practice can meet, and where prevailing dramatic assumptions can be subjected to vigorous critical questioning. It shows that theatre history has a contemporary relevance, that theatre studies need a methodology, and that theatre criticism needs a language. The journal publishes news, analysis and debate within the field of theatre studies. Articles in volume 61 include: Animating Morecambe: Forkbeard Fantasy Goes to the Ball; 'Transforming' Women's Lives: Bobby Baker's Performances of 'Daily Life'; Landscapes of Fact and Fiction: Asian Theatre Arts in Britain; Impersonation in Some African Ritual and Festival Performance; More-and-less-than: Liveness, Video Recording, and the Future of Performance.
