Proposing the innovative concept of palimpsest bodies to interpret
provocative theatre and performance experiments that explore issues
of cultural memory, bodies of history, archives, repertoires and
performing remains, Ruth Hellier-Tinoco offers an in-depth analysis
of four postdramatic and transdisciplinary collective creation
theatre projects. Combined with ideas of postmemory and rememory,
palimpsest bodies are inherently trans-temporal as they perform
re-visions of embodied gestures, vocalized calls and sensory
experiences. Focusing on one of Mexico's most significant
contemporary theatre companies, La Maquina de Teatro, directed by
renowned artists Juliana Faesler and Clarissa Malheiros, this
ground-breaking study documents the playfully rigorous performances
of layered, plural and trans identities as collaborative, feminist
and queer re-visions of official histories and collective memories.
Illustrated with over one hundred colour photos, Performing
Palimpsest Bodies: Postmemory Theatre Experiments in Mexico will
appeal to creative artists and scholars interested in contemporary
theatre and performance studies, critical dance studies, collective
creation and performance-making.
