What is the history of devised theatre? Why have theatre-makers,
since the 1950s, chosen to devise performances? What different
sorts of devising practices are there? What are the myths attached
to devising, and what are the realities? First published in 2005,
Devising Performance remains the only book to offer the reader a
history of devising practice. Charting the development of
collaboratively created performances from the 1950s to the early
21st century, it presents a range of case studies drawn from
Britain, America and Australia. Companies discussed include The
Living Theatre, Open Theatre, Australian Performing Group, People
Show, Teatro Campesino, Theatre de Complicite, Legs on the Wall,
Forced Entertainment, Goat Island and Graeae. Providing a history
of devising practice, Deirdre Heddon and Jane Milling encourage us
to look more carefully at the different modes of devising and to
consider the implications of our use of these practices in the 21st
century.
