Details

by Colette Conroy and Marina Abramović (Foreword)

What do we mean when we talk about bodies in theatre? And how does theatre affect the way we think about the human body?

Bodies are vital elements of theatre production and spectatorship. But the body is not just physical, it is also conceptual. Drawing on many examples from contemporary performance, Theatre & the Body is a provocative starting point for understanding the surprisingly complex relationship between theatre and the body.

Concise and clear, this book explores the revealing tensions between the body, bodies, language, representation and movement in the theatre.
