Written (and occasionally performed) by Rob Drummond in
collaboration with director David Overend, these scripts are a
record of a long-term artistic partnership. From the award-winning
magic of Bullet Catch (the Arches, 2012), to the audience votes of
The Majority (National Theatre of Great Britain, 2017), these six
plays open up a space for improvisation and participation, and a
range of responses and reactions from the audience. The collection
includes four previously unpublished scripts along with up-to-date
versions of their most successful productions. With introductory
essays and in-text commentary by both the writer and director, this
is a valuable resource for practitioners, students, and scholars of
contemporary British theatre.
This book makes a compelling case for ‘performance fieldwork’
as a vital new approach to interdisciplinary collaboration.
Refocussing the histories and practices of field research, it shows
how creative methods and artistic processes can contribute to an
embodied and situated knowledge of complex landscapes and
environments. The book brings together case studies of innovative
research in the fields of ecology, clubbing, heritage, mobility and
deep time, which took place in the United Kingdom between 2009 and
2021. These accessible and engaging field notes connect to
international and intercultural contexts, with attention to
alternative experiences and perspectives throughout. Together, they
provide a critically informed ‘toolbox’ of playful and
exploratory strategies for working with a diverse range of urban
and rural sites – including a river, a museum, a nightclub, a
motorway and a cave. This is a timely methodology that reaches
across disciplines to demonstrate how performance continually plays
out ‘in the field’.
