Following on from Sandra Reeve's Nine Ways of Seeing a Body (which
offered a historical perspective on different key approaches to the
body over time), this new edited collection brings together a wide
range of contemporary approaches to the body that are being used by
performers or in the context of performance training. The intention
is for students, dancers, performers, singers, musicians, directors
and choreographers to locate their own preferred approach(es) to
the body-in-performance amongst the lenses described here. The
collection is also designed to facilitate further research in that
direction as well as to signpost alternatives that might enrich
their current vocabulary. All 12 approaches represent the praxis
and research of their authors. The chapters reveal a wide variety
of different interests but they share the common framework of the
notion of 'body as flux', of 'no fixed or determined sense of self'
and of supporting the performer's being-becoming-being as a skilful
creative entity, emphasising the intelligence of the body at work.
