This is a collection of essays from a diverse, international group of authors and practitioners focusing on intercultural acting and voice practices worldwide. This book invites performers and teachers of acting and performance to explore, describe, and interrogate the complexities of intercultural acting and actor/performer training taking place in our twenty-first century, globalised world. As global contexts become multi-, inter- and intra-cultural, assumptions about what acting 'is' and what actor/performer training should be continue to be shaped by conventional modes, models, techniques and structures. The book examines how our understanding of interculturalism changes when we shift our focus from the obvious and highly visible aspects of production to the micro-level of training grounds, studios, and rehearsal rooms, where new forms of hybrid performance are emerging.
