Contemporary Theatre in Mayan Mexico: Death-defying Acts

by TamaraL.Underiner (Author)

Synopsis

Draws on fieldwork with theater groups in Chiapas, Tabasco, and Yucatan to observe the Maya peoples in the process of defining themselves through theatrical performance. This book shows that theater groups working under the rubric of Mayan or indigenous theater are in constant confrontation, and collaboration with the wider, non-Mayan world.
