Performing Psychologies offers new perspectives on arts and health,
focussing on the different ways in which performance interacting
with psychology can enhance understanding of the mind. The book
challenges stereotypes of disability, madness and creativity,
addressing a range of conditions (autism, dementia and
schizophrenia) and performance practices including staged
productions and applied work in custodial, health and community
settings. Featuring case studies ranging from Hamlet to The Curious
Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, the pioneering work of
companies such as Spare Tyre and Ridiculusmus, and embracing dance
and music as well as theatre and drama, the volume offers new
perspectives on the dynamic interactions between performance,
psychology and states of mind. It contains contributions from
psychologists, performance scholars, therapists and healthcare
professionals, who offer multiple perspectives on working through
performance-based media. Presenting a richly interdisciplinary and
collaborative investigation of the arts in practice, this volume
opens up new ways of thinking about the performance of
psychologies, and about how psychologies perform.
