A diverse collection of texts that take Edward Albee’s theatre beyond the Anglophone sphere, examining the reception and impact of his works in different linguistic, cultural and socio-political contexts.
The final volume of the New Perspectives in Edward Albee Studies series expands the analyses of Edward Albee’s theatre beyond Anglophone countries. Ranging from academic essays, performance reviews, and interviews, the selected contributions examine different socio-political contexts, cultural dynamics, linguistic communities, and aesthetic traditions, from the 1960s to our contemporary days. Albee Abroad gladly brings together varied voices from Czech Republic, People’s Republic of China, Brazil, Iran, Germany, Spain, and Greece, thus enriching Albee scholarship with more plural tones.

Esther Santana (Ph.D., University of Campinas, 2021) is currently a postdoctoral researcher at the University of São Paulo and the São Paulo Research Foundation. She is also the International Secretary for Latin America of the Edward Albee Society. She has published on Brazilian and American drama, theatre historiography, and global theatre studies.
