      abstract = {Theatre Across Oceans: Mediators Of Transatlantic Exchange  allows the reader to enter and understand the  infrastructural 'backstage area' of global cultural  mobility during the years between 1890 and 1925. Located  within the research fields of global history and theory,  the geographical focus of the book is a transatlantic one,  based on the active exchange in this phase between North  and South America and Europe. Emanating from a rich body of  archival material, the study argues that this exchange was  essentially facilitated and controlled by professional  theatrical mediators (agents, brokers), who have not been  sufficiently researched within theatre or historical  studies. The low visibility of mediators in the scientific  research is in diametrical contrast to the enormous power  that they possessed in the period dealt with in this book.  Nic Leonhardt is Associate Professor of Theatre Studies at  LMU Munich. Her research focuses on theatre history of the  nineteenth and twentieth century and is strongly  interdisciplinary and transnational in approach. Since 2016  she has been the senior researcher and associate director  of the ERC (European Research Council) project "Developing  Theatre" at LMU Munich, as well as director of the Centre  for Global Theatre History.},
