"On the Performance Front argues that US theatre in the twentieth century embraced
the theories and practices of internationalism as a way to realize a better world
and as part of the strategic reform of the theatre into a national expression. Live
performance, theatre internationalists argued, could represent and reflect the nation
like no other endeavour. On the Performance Front focuses on US theatre's international
efforts without losing sight of either the ways these efforts mirrored those in other
countries or the complex, often conflicting, relationship between internationalism
and nationalism"
