Where do we find the dead? Do the dead appear in our dreams? What
is it like to play dead? This book is an exciting exploration of
the relationship between death and play in performance. Exploring a
range of artists and creative disciplines that remember, personify
and re-imagine the dead, it playfully unpacks the psychoanalytic
concepts of the Death Drive, Desire and the Uncanny as a way of
thinking about performance. Embodying the Dead draws on work of
Gary Winters and Claire Hind and the various qualities of deadness
found in their projects. The authors' work includes live art,
theatre, installation, Super 8mm film, walking arts practice and
durational performance. This book includes scripts and scores of
their performances, original creative texts, interviews with
internationally renowned artists and a series of practice-led
research tasks to support readers creating their own imaginative
performance work. Rich in creative and critical content, this book
is ideal for students of drama, theatre and performance studies who
have an interest in devised theatre, theatre making, writing for
performance and intermedial practice.
