Akram Khan
Details
Through seven key case studies from Khan's oeuvre, this book demonstrates how Akram Khan's 'new interculturalism' is a challenge to the 1980s western 'intercultural theatre' project, as a more nuanced and embodied approach to representing Othernesses, from his own position of the Other.
Winner of the DSA de la Torre Bueno First Book Award 2017 Runner-up for the TaPRA New Career Research in Theatre/Performance Prize 2016
