The Dramaturgy of the Door examines the door as a critical but
under-explored feature of theatre and performance, asking how doors
function on stage, in site-specific practice and in performances of
place. This first book-length study on the topic argues that doors
engage in and help to shape broad phenomena of performance across
key areas of critical enquiry in the field. Doors open up questions
of theatrical space(s) and artistic encounters with place(s),
design and architecture, bodies and movement, interior versus
exterior, im/materiality, the relationship between the real and the
imaginary, and processes of transformation. As doors separate
places and practices, they also invite us to see connections and
contradictions between each one and to consider the ways in which
doors frame the world beyond the stage and between places of
performance. With a wide-ranging set of examples - from
Shakespeare's Macbeth to performance installations in the Mojave
Desert - The Dramaturgy of the Door is aimed at performance makers
and artists as well as advanced students and scholars in the fields
of performance studies, cultural theory, and visual arts.
