This is the first book length study of performance activism. While
Performance Studies recognizes the universality of human
performance in daily life, what is specifically under investigation
here is performance as an activity intentionally entered into as a
means of engaging social issues and conflicts, that is, as an
ensemble activity by which we re-construct/transform social
reality. Performance Activism: Precursors and Contemporary Pioneers
provides a global overview of the growing interface of performance
with education, therapy, conflict resolution, civic engagement,
community development and social justice activism. It combines an
historical study of the processes by which, over the course of the
20th Century, performance has been loosened from the institutional
constraints of the theatre with a mosaic-like overview of the
diverse work/play of contemporary performance activists around the
world. Performance Activism will be of interest to theatre and
cultural historians, performance practitioners and researchers,
psychologists and sociologists, educators and youth workers,
community organizers and political activists.
