About the book
This book began as a dialogue between theologian Todd Johnson and theatre artist Dale Savidge. Not only do we have ideas to exchange as friends, but theology and theatre can also learn a great deal from each other. Our starting point is that theatre has theological content: not just the content of the performance but as an art form, theatre uniquely reflects the imago Dei, the mage of God imbued into humanity. This is the first full-length study that explores contemporary live theatre from the perspective and experience of both the theologian and the theatre artist. Performance theory, history, criticism, theology, and worship are all brought together in a refreshing new look at the old art of live theatre in Performing the Sacred. - Publisher.
