STAGING THE WORLD - Theatre in the Space Age, (Adventures in Site Specific Performance) is a collection of essays and papers about plays produced in real places. These "site specific" productions were inspired by political street theatre, independent filmmaking and a desire to take theatre away from dedicated theatre buildings and out into the world where they lived, worked and played. The events took place on trams and boats, in pubs and cinemas, parks and gardens, tents and houses. They also took Shakespeare's idea of "all the world" being "a stage" quite literally, and were part of a revolution in theatre practice that occurred in Melbourne throughout the 1980s and well into the 1990s.
