What is The Body in Performance (Contemporary Theatre Review) about?

Lively yet intriguing, The Body in Performance is a varied collection of essays about this much-discussed area. Posing the question'Why this current preoccupation with the performed body?'the collection of specially commissioned essays from both academics and practitioners - in some cases one and the same person - considers such cutting edge topics as the abject body and performance, censorship and live art, the presentation of violence on stage, carnal art, and the vexed issue of mimesis in the theatre. Drawing variously on the work of Franko B., Orlan, Annie Sprinkle, Karen Finley, and Forced Entertainment, it concludes with a creative piece about a'Famous New York Performance Artist.'Contributors include Rebecca Schneider whose book The Explicit Body in Performance is a key text in this area, and Joan Lipkin, director and writer.
