The Theatre of Fake News, Paperback / softback Book

The Theatre of Fake News Paperback / softback

Part of the Anthem Studies in Theatre and Performance series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book argues that theatre and drama help us to understand the concern about ‘fake news’.

Moran shows that ‘fake news’ has arisen in the twenty-first century through what are essentially a series of performance contexts.

Although the concept of ‘fake news’ has developed to great prominence since 2016, there is a much longer history of theatre makers and thinkers grappling with the ideas that underpin our modern worries about misinformation being distributed in the press, in broadcast news, and via social media.
