Feminist Futures? Theatre, Performance, Theory
Editor: Elaine Aston, Geraldine Harris | Reference: P2122 | ISBN: 978-1-4039-4533-4 | Type: Publication

Feminist Futures? sets out to ask if and in what way feminism remains relevant to theatre and performance practice of the twenty-first century. Responding to this question is an excellent, cross-generational mix of theatre scholars and practitioners whose essays engage in lively, cutting edge critical debates on issues such as citizenship, autobiography, cultural heritage, political agency, and body/technology, as circulating in contemporary feminism and performance today.
