Sound provides a lively and engaging overview of relevant critical
theory for students and researchers in theatre and performance
studies. Addressing sound across history and through progressive
developments in relevant technologies, the volume opens up the
study of theatrical production and live performance to understand
conceptual and pragmatic concerns about the sonic. By way of
developed case studies (including Aristophanes's The Frogs,
Shakespeare's The Tempest, Cocteau's The Human Voice, and Rimini
Protokoll's Situation Rooms), readers can explore new methodologies
and approaches for their own work on sound as a performance
component. In an engagement with the burgeoning interdisciplinary
field of sound studies, this book samples exciting new thinking
relevant to theatre and performance studies. Part of the Theory for
Theatre Studies series which introduces core theoretical concepts
that underpin the discipline, Sound provides a balance of essential
background information and new scholarship, and is grounded in
detailed examples that illuminate and equip readers for their own
sonic explorations. Volumes follow a consistent three-part
structure: a historical overview of how the term has been
understood within the discipline; more recent developments
illustrated by substantive case studies; and emergent trends and
interdisciplinary connections. Volumes are supported by further
online resources including chapter overviews, illustrative material
and guiding questions. Online resources to accompany this book are
