Performing Architectures offers a coherent introduction to the
fields of performance and contemporary architecture, exploring the
significance of architecture for performance theory and theatre and
performance practice. It maps the diverse relations that exist
between these disciplines and demonstrates how their aims, concerns
and practices overlap through shared interests in space, action and
event. Through a wide range of international examples and
contributions from scholars and practitioners, it offers readers an
analytical survey of current practices and equips them with the
tools for analyzing site-specific and immersive theatre and
performance. The essays in this volume, contributed by leading
theorists and practitioners from both disciplines, focus on three
key sites of encounter: * Projects: examines recent trends in
architecture for performance; * Practices: looks at cross-currents
in artistic practice, including spatial dramaturgies, performance
architectonics and performative architectures; and * Pedagogies:
considers the uses of performance in architectural education and
architecture in teaching performance. The volume provides an
essential introduction to the ways in which performance and
architecture, as socio-spatial processes and as things made or
constructed, operate as generating, shaping and steering forces in
understanding and performing the other.
