Product Information | |
Theories of Performance invites students to explore the possibilities of performance for creating, kwing, and staking claims to the world. Each chapter surveys, explains, and illustrates classic, modern, and postmodern theories that answer the questions, What is performance?Why do people perform? and How does performance constitute our social and political worlds? The chapters feature performance as the entry point for understanding texts, drama, culture, social roles, identity, resistance, and techlogies. Written specifically for the undergraduate classroom, performance theories are explained in ways accessible to students, relevant to their lives, and richly illustrated with examples that encourage students to think more, to think harder, and to think differently about performances around them. | |
