E-grāmata: Dramaturgy to Make Visible: The Legacies of New Dramaturgy for Politics and Performance in Our Times [Taylor & Francis e-book]

"This book argues that dramaturgy makes things visible and does so in two distinct and interrelating ways: creative processes and formal elements of performance are rendered visible and readable; and performance dramaturgy becomes an expanded practice inwhich performance is a locus for creating wide-ranging events and activities. This exploration defines dramaturgy as a perceptibly transforming agency in the construction, presentation, and reception of contemporary performance; and it shows how contemporary performance has an intrinsic dramaturgical aspect whose proliferation of dramaturgical practices has led to a far-reaching reinvention of what contemporary theatre is. In doing so, this book deals with a careful selection of performance practices including theatrical adaptations, new media dramaturgy, contemporary dance, installation-performance, postdramatic theatre, visionary works by auteurs and revivals of well-known stage-shows. This study will be of great interest to students and scholars in theater studies, performance studies, cultural studies, curating, and dance scholarship"--
