Description

Performing Processes: Creating Live Performance by Roberta Mock explores the dynamic relationship between creative process, presentation and spectator response. This book provides new insights into performance from poetry to pantomime, making parallels between areas of performance that are rarely compared. The authors examine the work of contemporary dramatists, choreographers, poets and performers, drawing on theoretical approaches from a range of sources. They investigate how the exchange between process and spectator response is embedded in the product itself. This study offers a valuable new approach to performance research, making it a useful resource for students and scholars alike. As a textbook and supplementary reading for drama courses nationwide, this book provides a wide-ranging perspective on performance that can inform both teaching and research.
