Performance and Solidarity is the very first issue of the new theatre publication series TINFO publications in Helsinki, Finland. Even though essays and other pieces were written from a distinctly Finnish vantage point, authors hope that they will inspire free and open debate on the theatrical arts that is truly international in its scope and firmly committed to solidarity.
"[…] today’s world is full of “situations”; disasters both great and small. People congregate towards them, to put out fires, to bring the wounded to hospital, to do their part. All of that informs the theatre we are making and experiencing right now.[…] it is an attempt at making sense of the disasters facing us and at bringing people together in pursuit of solutions and the best ways to respond." [A Situation Room for Theatre by Heidi Backström & Maria Säkö, Guest Editors-in-Chief]
