This book investigates the representation of rape in British and
Irish theatre since the second wave of the Women's Movement. Mainly
focusing on the period from the 1990s to the present, it identifies
key feminist debates on rape and gender, and introduces a set of
ideas about the function of rape as a form of embodied, gendered
violence to the analysis of dramaturgical and performance
strategies used in a range of important and/or controversial works.
The chapters explore the dramatic representation of consent;
feminist performance strategies that interrogate common attitudes
to rape and rape survivors; the use of rape as an allegory for
political oppression; the relationships of vulnerability, eroticism
and affect in the understanding and representation of sexual
violence; and recent work that engages with anti-rape activism to
present women's personal experiences on stage.
