Product Information
What happens in the relationship between audience and performer? What choices are made in the space of performance about how we attend to others? A Strange Proximity examines stage presence as key to thinking about performance and ethics. It is the first phenomenological account of ethics generated from, rather than applied to, contemporary theatrical productions. The ethical possibilities of the stage, argues Jon Foley Sherman, rest not so much in its objects-the performers and the show itself-as in the how of attending to others. A Strange Proximity is a unique perspective on the implications of attention in performance.Product Identifiers
