Why is folly essential to the functioning of a healthy society? Why is theatre a natural home for madness? The answers take the reader on a journey embracing Shakespeare and Jonson, Brecht and Beckett, Büchner and Boal. From Falstaff to Fo via Figaro, this study examines the art of telling truth to power and surviving long enough to have a laugh.

He is a member of the editorial board of Research in Drama Education and has written for applied theatre journals across the world. He is co-author of Popular Theatre in Political Culture and co-editor of The Applied Theatre Reader.
