Aimed at students and practitioners in both disciplines, it traces a series of debates about performance, representation, and reality across diverse contexts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRather than a linear  historical narrative, the book follows an overarching chronology of questions and problems, offering a  kaleidoscopic view of the many different ways in which the relationship between theatre and film can be  configured.
