Devising Performance Résumé

Devising Performance: A Critical History Dr. Jane Milling

The book charts the development of collaboratively-created performances from the 1950s to the present day. Companies discussed include the Living Theatre, Open Theatre, Australian Performing Group, People Show, Teatro Campesino, Theatre de Complicite, Legs on the Wall, Forced Entertainment and Third Angel. Against this background of enormous variety, fundamental questions are posed: 'What is devised theatre?'; 'Why have theatre-makers chosen to devise performances since the 1950s?' and 'How has devised performance changed over the last fifty years?'

Devising Performance Avis

'With 'devising' as the linchpin, the authors bring into dialogue an extraordinary array of aesthetic theories and practices, political ideologies and popular forms of entertainment, historical movements and critical thought. A must read for performance studies enthusiasts, scholars and practitioners alike, whether seeking a history or a guide-book.' - Mady Schutzman, CalArts (California Institute of the Arts)
