Thus, individual accounts of powerlessness were placed in relation to others, as acts of living knowledge and as claim upon the shared articulation that theatrical working together can foster.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book, departing from but not confined to the example of \u003ci\u003eInventory\u003c\/i\u003e, explores contemporary ways of making and performing that bring marginalised knowledges into appearance and action.
