Table of ContentsReviewsThis timely collection of new essays provides a fascinating survey of the work of Jacques Rancière and its impact on cutting-edge thinking in theatre and performance studies. In a series of provocative and inspiring engagements, theatre and performance are offered here as sites for destabilising the hierarchies of expertise and experience, exploding myths of the passive spectator, and framing some of the most urgent political questions of our time. Although a decade has passed since the English publication of the Emancipated Spectator, Rancière's thought has lost none of its power to unsettle preconceptions regarding art and politics. Fryer and Conroy's timely volume proves the point. Its judicious selection of essays probe the potentialities and - yes - frustrations for theatre and performance scholars engaging with the dissensus at the heart of Rancière's project.
