TextSeries: Theory for theatre studiesPublisher: London : Methuen Drama, 2019Description: xi, 184 pages ; 20 cmContent type: text Media type: unmediated Carrier type: volumeISBN: 9781350006065 (pbk.) :Subject(s): Theater | Performing Arts | Performing ArtsDDC classification: 792 Summary: Space: it's everywhere, all around, a given. It's abstract and yet not abstract at all, because it governs all human relations, shapes the way we understand our place on the planet, and orients us toward others (for better and for worse). How do theatre scholars understand space and place in performance? What tools do they use to theorize the political work space does on - and beyond - the stage? How can students use these tools to unpack the workings of space and place in the performances they see, the plays they study, and the experiences they have outside their classrooms? This title provides a comprehensive introduction to the 'spatial turn' in modern theatre and performance theory, exploring topics as diverse as embodied space, environmental performance politics and urban performance studies.
