(1993) New directions in theatre, Basingstoke, Palgrave Macmillan.
In 1985 the Royal Dramatic Theatre (Dramaten) and the Working Life Centre (Arbetslivscentrum), both in Stockholm, began a series of seminars on the question of dialogue. That two such different institutions — the one devoted to producing theatre, the other to the analysis of the role and impact of technology on working life — should co-operate in this way may seem surprising, yet it is not really that strange. Theatre has always used technology for its own purposes, and, as a former Director of the Royal Dramatic Theatre, Erland Josefson, has pointed out, theatre has a 2000-year-old tradition of passing on knowledge and experience through dialogue.1
