Performance and the Politics of Space (eBook, ePUB)

Theatre and Topology
Redaktion: Fischer-Lichte, Erika; Wihstutz, Benjamin

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This collection asks what's at stake when a theatrical space is created and when a performance takes place: under what circumstances the topology of theatre becomes political. It visits a politics of inclusion and exclusion, of distributions and placements, and of spatial appropriation and utopian concepts in theatre history and contemporary performance.
