Synopsis
Performing Heritage is the first book to bring together the range of voices, debates and practices that constitute the fields of museum theatre and live interpretation. Inspiring and challenging in its scope and level of debate, Performing Heritage crosses the disciplines of performance and museum/heritage studies and offers remarkable and timely insights into the processes, outcomes and potential of this rich and rapidly developing practice - and in a variety of international contexts. The book productively brings together academic research and professional practice, and will be essential reading for all those interested in, and concerned with the future of, 'heritage' and its interpretation. -- .

Newspapers & Magazines
This collection both consolidates and moves forward the previously somewhat fragmented discussion on the relationship between heritage and performance.'
Stephen Bottoms, Research in Drama Education: The Journal of Applied Theatre and Performance, 29/02/2012

'an exciting and worthwhile book.'
Jessica Nakamura, TDR: The Drama Review 57:2, Summer 2013

...the book successfully delivers a wide discourse on the definition and value of performance and heritage and relates them to the 'new museology', recognising the role of the audience/visitor in constructing their own meaning. -- .
