Performing #MeToo: How Not to Look Away is Now Available!
In Performing #MeToo: How Not to Look Away editor Judith Rudakoff brings together twelve artists, activists, allies and scholars who offer a range of perspectives on the movement by engaging with performance from a variety of time periods, analysed in a diversity of styles, discussing work they have either performed, witnessed or studied. The collected chapters are intended to invite reflection, provoke discussion and incite action.
The topics addressed by writers include socially engaged practice; celebrity feminism, archive, repertoire; rape/war; misogynistic speech; stage management and intimacy facilitation; key institutions’ responses; spatial practices as well as temporal ones; academic call-outs; caste/class; political contexts; adaptation of classic texts; activist events; bouffon (a clown technique) and audience response.
