"Among its many virtues, "Negotiating Performance" has the merit of bravely tackling the thorny issue of Latino identity head-on. Taylor's strong and thoughtful introduction sets the tone for a challenging reflection on the pitfalls of a multiculturalist stance (be it purely commercial or naively sympathetic) that blithely incorporates, homogenizes, and dispatches differences without ever dwelling on the more profound implications of those differences in U.S. culture today."--Sylvia Molloy, New York University
"The attractiveness of "Negotiating Performance" lies exactly in the boldness of including a diverse group of essays, each of which speaks with its own voice. It will provide valuable insights into areas of contemporary interest in theatre studies."--George Woodyard, University of Kansas
