Performance in Popular Culture reveals the intricate relationship
between performance and popular culture by exploring how theatrical
conventions and dramaturgical tropes have informed the way the
social is constructed for popular consumption. Staged as a series
of case studies, this book considers the diverse ways the social is
imagined and produced in live and mediated performances, in images
and texts, in interactive experiences and in cultural institutions.
By looking at performance in popular culture, the world we live in
becomes more visible, open to investigation and (perhaps) to
change. Performance in Popular Culture engages a wide range of
disciplines and theoretical frameworks: performance, theatre and
cultural studies; comparative literature and media studies; gender
and sexuality, critical race and post-colonial theories. Designed
for accessibility at an undergraduate level, the case studies make
use of visual materials, moving images and texts that are readily
available to lecturers and students, to scholars and to the general
public.
