This book brings together Gender Studies and Performance Analysis to explore how contemporary performance represents and interrogates gender.
In diverse case studies, ranging from Mabou Mines through Churchill, Shakespeare and Ibsen, to site-specific, dance theatre, speculative drag, installation and music video performances, contributors explore how gender intersects with social class, race, ethnicity, culture and history.
Read individually or in tension one with another, the essays confront the complexities and divergences in ways of conceiving and interrogating gender in performance. The materialities of production and staging - the theatrical event, costume, space and scenography, companies and their ethos, casting, and bodies - are sites where gender meanings are proposed and questioned, often provocatively. The Introduction outlines the book's key approaches to concepts in English-language gender discourses and gender's intersectionalities and outlines the philosophies of performance analysis and research methods that are at work, opening up dialogues between these two disciplines.
Taking performance analysis as a central hermeneutic to understandings of gender and identity, the book addresses the need to connect the experiences of audiences with ontologies of gender.
Analyzing Gender in Performance presents a breadth of contemporary performance genres in stimulating and accessible analyses. It is designed for graduate and undergraduate students in Theatre and Drama, Performance Studies, Gender Studies, LGBTQ+ Studies and Feminist Studies.
