Description
This concise and engaging exploration examines the interdependence between theatre and dance. Kate Elswit argues that resisting genre distinctions in the arts is crucial, and that the ampersand between theatre and dance should be understood as the norm rather than the exception.
The book focuses on the interconnected ecosystems of practice that constitute performance history, the expansion of theatre and dance forms on contemporary stages, and the disciplinary methods used by scholars to understand such practices, both past and present. It offers an accessible and affordable resource for those interested in theatre and dance.
