Description

Product Description In this epic history-cum-anthology, Megan Vaughan tells the story of the theatre blogosphere from the dawn of the carefully crafted longform post to today's digital newsletters and social media threads. Contextualising the key debates of fifteen years of theatre history, and featuring the writings of over 40 theatre bloggers, Theatre Blogging brings past and present practitioners into conversation with one another.Starting with Encore Theatre Magazine and Chris Goode in London, George Hunka and Laura Axelrod in New York, Jill Dolan at Princeton University, and Alison Croggon in Melbourne, the work of these influential early adopters is considered alongside those who followed them.Vaughan explores issues that have affected both arts journalism and the theatre industry, profiling the activist bloggers arguing for broader representation and better working conditions, highlighting the innovative dramaturgical practices that have been developed and piloted by bloggers, and offering powerful insights into the precarious systems of labour and economics in which these writers exist. She concludes by considering current threats to the theatre blogosphere, and how the form continues to evolve in response to them. Review "Fascinating ... This is an important and persuasive book which has certainly made me stop and think about my own brand, writing style and goals for future pieces. I heartily recommend it to critics and theatre bloggers at any stage in their careers, with the excerpts being reproduced being worth the purchase of the book alone." --Lou Reviews Blog"[A] timely survey of online criticism ... a stimulating snapshot before the bits and bytes melt into techno-oblivion." --Critical Stages About the Author Megan Vaughan has been a theatre blogger since 2010. She is widely regarded as one of the most influential bloggers covering theatre in London. She is undertaking a PhD on ‘outsider’ theatre criticism at Royal Holloway, University of London, UK, under the supervision of Dan Rebellato.
