Publishers Description: This book documents the work of The Popular Theatre Troupe and the Street Arts Community Theatre Company during the 1970s and 1980s in Brisbane. Each group appears to have had a different political perspective for their projects and as a result their productions have contrasting images. Part one of the book looks at these two paradigms of political activism; part two chronicles the life of The Popular Theatre Troupe; part three provides a background to the theatre collective, Order by Numbers; part four summaries the history of the Street Arts Community Theatre Company; and part five contains six scripts representing the groups. Includes a bibliography, contributors, a glossary and an index.
