An overview of contemporary theatre which explores many of the most contentious questions concerning applied theatre, its devised methods, and the corresponding challenges presented to traditional definitions of theatre and related arts. This study attempts to define what it means today to say ""Finnish theatre"" and addresses issues concerning Finland's emergence as a cultural player within the European Union and implications for its evolving national identity.
