The Radical in Performance : Between Brecht and Baudrillard Hardback
by Baz Kershaw
Hardback
Description
The Radical in Performance investigates the crisis in contemporary theatre, and celebrates the subversive in performance.
It is the first full-length study to explore the link between a western theatre which, says Kershaw, is largely outdated and the blossoming of postmodern performance, much of which has a genuinely radical edge.
In staying focused on the period between Brecht and Baudrillard, modernity and postmodernism, Baz Kershaw identifies crucial resources for the revitalisation of the radical across a wide spectrum of cultural practices. This is a timely, necessary and rigorous book. It will be a compelling read for anyone searching for a critical catalyst for new ways of viewing and practising cultural politics.
