Meerzon and Pewny ask: What impact do peoples' movement between continents, countries, cultures, and languages have on the process of meaning production in plays about migration created by migrant artists? What dramaturgical devices do migrant artists employ when they work in the context of multilingual production, with the texts written in many languages, and when staging performances that target multicultural and multilingual theatregoers? And, finally, how do the new multilingual practices of theatre writing and performance meet and transform the existing practices of postdramatic dramaturgies? By considering these questions in a global context, the editors explore the overlapping complexities of migratory performances with both range and depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIdeal for scholars, students, and practitioners of theatre, dramaturgy, and devising, \u003ci\u003eDramaturgy of Migration \u003c\/i\u003eexpresses not only the practicalities of migratory performances but also the emotional responses of the artists who stage them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eYana Meerzon \u003c\/b\u003eis Professor of Theatre Studies in the Department of Theatre, University of Ottawa.
