Works of theatre that depict grievous histories derive their force from making audible voices of the past. Such performances, theatrical or tourist, require the attentive belief of spectators. This engaging new study explores how theatricality works in each instance and how 'playing the part' of the listener can be understood in ethical terms.

Emma Willis is an academic and artist based in Aotearoa New Zealand where she teaches Drama at the University of Auckland. In addition to publishing performance criticism, she works as a writer, director and dramaturge in theatre, dance and radio.
