- More about Race and Performance after Repetition
Race and Performance after Repetition explores how theater and performance studies account for the complex relationship between race and time, proposing a spectrum of coexisting racial temporalities that are not tethered to repetition.
Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 344 pages
Publication date: 11 September 2020
Publisher: Duke University Press
The contributors to Race and Performance after Repetition delve into the intricate interplay between race and time, shedding light on the complex relationship between theater and performance studies. Recognizing that repetition has served as a fundamental lens for comprehending the multifaceted temporality of theater and the enduring legacy of race, they seek to explore and propose alternative frameworks for conceptualizing, organizing, measuring, and politicizing race in performance.
Through a comprehensive examination of various performance genres, including theater, performance art, music, sports, dance, photography, and more, the contributors delve into diverse topics such as the movement of boxer Joe Louis, George C. Wolfe's 2016 reimagining of the 1921 all-black musical comedy Shuffle Along, and the relationship between dance, mourning, and black adolescence in Flying Lotus's music video "Never Catch Me." By challenging prevailing theories in performance studies, the collection seeks to uncover fresh perspectives on race, offering a spectrum of coexisting racial temporalities that transcend the confines of repetition.
In their contributions, the authors offer insightful analyses and critical perspectives, challenging the dominant narratives surrounding race and performance. They explore the ways in which performance can be used as a tool for resistance, empowerment, and social change, while also acknowledging the challenges and complexities inherent in such endeavors. Through their multidisciplinary approach, the contributors contribute to a richer understanding of the complex dynamics between race and time, paving the way for new avenues of inquiry and exploration in the field of performance studies.
