Staging Social Justice is a groundbreaking collection of essays about Fringe Benefitsrsquo; script-devising methodology and their collaborations in the United States; Australia; Canada and the United Kingdom. The anthology also vividly describes the transformative impact of these creative initiatives on participants and audiences. By reflecting on their experiences working on these projects; the contributing writersmdash;artists; activists and scholarsmdash;provide the reader with tools and inspiration to create their own theatre for social change. ldquo;Contributors to this big-hearted collection share Fringe Benefitsrsquo; play devising process; and a compelling array of methods for measuring impact; approaches to aesthetics (with humor high on the list); coalition and community building; reflections on safe space; and acknowledgement of the diverse roles needed to apply theatre to social justice goals. The book beautifully bears witness to both how generative Fringe Benefitsrsquo; collaborations have been for participants and to the potential of engaged art in multidisciplinary ecosystems more broadly.rdquo;mdash;Jan Cohen-Cruz; editor of Public: A Journal of Imagining America
