{"product_id":"rhythm-in-postdramatic-performance-process","title":"Rhythm in Postdramatic Performance Process","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCombining theory and historiography, this book presents a new means for considering rhythm in postdramatic performance by examining the creative processes of three major international companies: Mime Omnibus (Montreal, Canada), Dairakudakan (Tokyo, Japan), and SITI Company (New York, US).\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile rhythm is unanimously acknowledged as fundamental to performance, critical in every role from performing and directing to design and dramaturgy, studies on the subject are limited and the phenomenon remains obscure. This book remedies that, offering a unique focus on ‘rhythmanalysis’, bringing distinctive and insightful attention to rhythm as permeating key areas of performance process.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy focusing on recent work from these three major companies, the book provides a glimpse into each company's latest devising processes, enriched by scholarly and archival research, while personal interviews give voice to performers often absent in performance analysis and criticism. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough its theoretical and practical offerings, this book brings greater understanding by putting forth a simplified model that can be applied to both interdisciplinary practices and theoretical analysis. The reader gains not only a greater understanding of rhythm in contemporary performance, but also significant insights into the working methods of each company.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54411050778968,"sku":"9781350406421","price":97.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781350406421_0889bed9-3b78-49c9-97ab-7efda2ae687e.jpg?v=1770913815","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/rhythm-in-postdramatic-performance-process","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
