It pays particular attention to the way in which writers and practitioners consider the ethical and social challenges of crisis. Anchored in an interdisciplinary approach that draws from sociology, cultural theory, feminism, performance and philosophy, the book brings multi-faceted ideas into dialogue with the diverse aesthetics, practices and themes of a range of theatrical work produced in Britain since 2005.\u003cb\u003eTopics discussed include:\u003c\/b\u003eAgeingAusterityGenderMigrancyMulticulturalismAesthetics\u003cb\u003eCompanies discussed include: \u003c\/b\u003eTheatre UncutLost DogCamden People''s PeopleLungBrighton People''s Theatre  Phosphoros Theatre \u003cb\u003ePlaywrights discussed include: \u003c\/b\u003eJez Butterworth Caryl Churchill Tim Crouch Vivienne Franzmann James Graham debbie tucker green Ella Hickson Charlene James Lucy Kirkwood Simon Longman Cordelia Lynn Simon Stephens Jack Thorne Chris Thorpe Gl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNotes on Contributors   1        States of Emergency: Performing Crisis   \u003ci\u003eClare Wallace and Clara Escoda\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cb\u003eCorporealites\u003c\/b\u003e 2        Ageing as Crisis on the Twenty-first-century British Stage   \u003ci\u003eSiân Adiseshiah\u003c\/i\u003e 3        Creative Contexts and Crises of Care: Ella Hickson’s \u003ci\u003eThe Writer\u003c\/i\u003e   \u003ci\u003eVicky Angelaki\u003c\/i\u003e 4        ‘I’m Not Afraid of Being Labelled a Dirty Boring Feminist’: Reproductive Work, Feminism and\/in Crisis at the Royal Court   \u003ci\u003eElisabeth Massana\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cb\u003eCollective action\u003c\/b\u003e 5 ‘We Need to Make the World We Live in’: Crisis and Utopia in Jack Thorne’s \u003ci\u003eHope\u003c\/i\u003e and Lung’s \u003ci\u003eE15\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eEnric Monforte\u003c\/i\u003e 6        Peopling the Theatre in a Time of Crisis   \u003ci\u003eSarah Bartley\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cb\u003eNationscapes\u003c\/b\u003e 7        Fields in England: Contemporary English Drama and the Countryside   \u003ci\u003eDavid Pattie\u003c\/i\u003e 8        ‘Sinking Giggling into the Sea’: Postdemocracy and the State of British Politics in James Graham’s \u003ci\u003eThis House\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eLabour of Love\u003c\/i\u003e   \u003ci\u003eJosé Ramón Prado-Pérez\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cb\u003eContact zones \u003c\/b\u003e 9        Theatre of Migration: Uncontainment as Migratory Aesthetic   \u003ci\u003eVerónica Rodríguez\u003c\/i\u003e 10 The Crisis of Multiculturalism in Charlene James’s \u003ci\u003eCuttin’It \u003c\/i\u003eand Gloria Williams’s \u003ci\u003eBullet Hole\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eMaría Isabel Seguro and Marta Tirado\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cb\u003eNew directions\u003c\/b\u003e 11    ‘Imaging’ Crisis: Photodramas in Focus   \u003ci\u003eElisabeth Angel-Perez\u003c\/i\u003e 12    Playing in the Dark: Tim Crouch’s \u003ci\u003eTotal Immediate Collective Imminent Terrestrial Salvation\u003c\/i\u003e   \u003ci\u003eStephen Scott-Bottoms\u003c\/i\u003e 13    Re-membering Assembly   \u003ci\u003eLouise Owen\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eand Marilena Zaroulia\u003c\/i\u003e   Index","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51019633557847,"sku":"9781350180857","price":67.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781350180857.jpg?v=1750780852","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/crisis-representation-and-resilience-9781350180857","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
