==Book Description==
For [[Alain]] [[Badiou]], theatre—unlike cinema—creates a [[space]] in which [[philosophy]] can be lived. It is, of all the [[arts]], the most closely related to [[politics]]: both depend on a limited [[number]] of [[texts]] or statements, which are collectively enacted by a group of actors or militants who [[test]] the limits of the [[structure]] inn which they are confined, be it the medium of drama or the [[nation]]-[[state]]. For this [[reason]], the [[history]] of theatre is inseparable from the history of state [[repression]] and [[censorship]].
This definitive collection of Badiou’s [[work]] on the theatre includes not only the title essay “Rhapsody for the Theatre,” originally published as a pamphlet in [[France]], but also essay on Jean-[[Paul]] [[Sartre]], on the [[political]] destiny of contemporary drama, and on Badiou’s own work as a playwright.
