Theatre, Performance and Cognition introduces readers to the key
debates, areas of research, and applications of the cognitive
sciences to the humanities, and to theatre and performance in
particular. It features the most exciting work being done at the
intersection of theatre and cognitive science, containing both
selected scientific studies that have been influential in the
field, each introduced and contextualised by the editors, together
with related scholarship from the field of theatre and performance
that demonstrates some of the applications of the cognitive
sciences to actor training, the rehearsal room and the realm of
performance more generally. The three sections consider the
principal areas of research and application in this
interdisciplinary field, starting with a focus on language and
meaning-making in which Shakespeare's work and Tom Stoppard's
Arcadia are considered. In the second part which focuses on the
body, chapters consider applications for actor and dance training,
while the third part focuses on dynamic ecologies, of which the
body is a part.
