Situates Jean Genet's theatre within the wider social, spatial and political contexts of France in the 1950s and 1960s. This book argues that his theory and practice of political theatre have more in common with the affirmative ideas of thinkers such as Henri Lefebvre, Jacques Ranciere and Alain Badiou.
