The Twenty-First Century Performance Reader combines extracts from
over 70 international practitioners, companies, collectives and
makers from the fields of Dance, Theatre, Music, Live and
Performance Art, and Activism to form an essential sourcebook for
students, researchers and practitioners. This is the follow-on text
from The Twentieth-Century Performance Reader, which has been the
key introductory text to all kinds of performance for over 20 years
since it was first published in 1996. Contributions from new and
emerging practitioners are placed alongside those of
long-established individual artists and companies, representing the
work of this century's leading practitioners through the voices of
over 140 individuals. The contributors in this volume reflect the
diverse and eclectic culture of practices that now make up the
expanded field of performance, and their stories, reflections and
working processes collectively offer a snapshot of contemporary
artistic concerns. Many of the pieces have been specially
commissioned for this edition and comprise a range of written forms
- scholarly, academic, creative, interviews, diary entries,
autobiographical, polemical and visual. Ideal for university
students and instructors, this volume's structure and global span
invites readers to compare and cross-reference significant
approaches outside of the constraints and simplifications of genre,
encouraging cross-disciplinary understandings. For those who engage
with new, live and innovative approaches to performance and the
interplay of radical ideas, The Twenty-First Century Performance
Reader is invaluable.
