The authors explore a range of different approaches to the
languages of theatre, including translation and interpretation of
the art form, along with languages, performance work, body language
and gesture. Considered alongside the related social issues of
race, class and dialect, the following questions emerge:
- What is the role of language in theatre today?
- Whose language is English; what other languages do women making
theatre use?
- What does it mean to write about, photograph and video live
performance?
- What is the future for women's theatre in an international
context increasingly united by new technologies but divided by new
issues of cultural diversity?
Goodman and de Gay analysis covers issues that are central to
current courses in Theatre and Performance and Women's Studies.
They assess the forms which women as theatre-makers have chosen to
explore in the age of new technology, and look at some of the
different definitions of 'theory' offered by theatre-makers and
critics including Caryl Churchill, Helene Cixous, Luce Irigiray and
Julia Kristeva.
