This book explores repetition in contemporary performance and
spectatorship. It offers an impassioned account of the ways in
which speech, movement and structures repeat in performances by
Pina Bausch, Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker, Lone Twin Theatre,
Haranczak/Navarre and Marco Berrettini. It addresses repetition in
relation to processes of desire and draws attention to the forces
that repetition captures and makes visible. What is it in
performances of repetition that persuades us to return to them
again and again? How might we unpack their complexities and come to
terms with their demands upon us? While considering repetition in
relation to the difficult pleasures we derive from the theatre,
this book explores ways of accounting for such experiences of
theatre in memory and writing.
