“Due to the book’s preponderance of case studies and de-emphasis on foundational theories and methodologies, this text feels best suited for graduate students or scholars in related fields looking for specific case studies. Such a rich array of case studies on translocal performance in Taiwan is likely most useful for scholars in performance studies, East Asian studies, and theatre and cinema.” (Annie Katsura Rollins, Asian Theatre Journal, Vol. 36 (2), 2019)
