'Common/Wealth battle the numbness and disassociation that is a consequence of life under late capitalism with straightforward acts of extra ordinary connection. Their work is powerful, joyful, purposeful and full of integrity. They make theatre that cares about people, and that people care about. This book shares how.' --Kae Tempest 'The book that theatre needs right now. Impassioned, practical, and rooted in a fiery integrity that illuminates every page.' --Selina Thompson 'Since their very earliest work Common/Wealth have shown a rare ability to marry rigorous political thinking with joyous artistic experiment. Always listening to the communities they work with, and always abreast of the most thrilling innovations in performance, they bring the joy of discovery to everything they do, and enrich us all in the process.' --John McGrath 'This book is a call to arms. It is an inspiring and galvanising read for anyone who makes theatre, or who is sick of feeling helpless to affect change. Stop stalling, read this book!' --Gob Squad Do It Yourself is a vital resource for anyone interested in theatre that is rooted in and produced by working class communities. Designed for artists, activists and community organisers, the book offers a step-by-step guide to creating political theatre. This is not just a handbook. It's a celebration of culture and politics as a collective endeavour. Common/Wealth have worked at the cutting edge of political theatre for more than sixteen years. In this book they share their experimental and activist approach to performance-making, based on DIY principles and the belief that groundbreaking theatre can be made with anyone, anywhere, in ways that truly resonate with the people and places it serves.
