This series investigates the history of long-standing, non-governmental performing dance organizations/artists collectives, in regions as diverse as the Occupied Palestinian Territories, Cambodia, Fiji, Australia, Uganda and Russia. Despite the political, cultural, environmental and economic instability of these regions, local performing arts organizations have produced extensive repertoires of critically-acclaimed, locally-produced creative performances. Their community-focused practices have sought to contribute to the sustainability and resilience of local civil society. Understanding the leadership provided by such grassroots arts organizations is an increasingly urgent concern in an era of growing political, environmental and economic instability. While scholarship has previously investigated the political histories, socio-economic challenges and intangible artistic heritage of these regions, this series presents historical and contextual analysis of how each of these contemporary performing arts organizations or movements provide leadership and resilience within their own communities.
