Restaging Feminisms provides a re-encounter with the tripartite modeling of liberal, radical, and socialist feminisms foundational to establishing feminist approaches to theatre. It assesses the legacies and renewals of all three feminist dynamics as they intersect with austerity Britain, the Weinstein watershed, and the #MeToo movement. The volume includes case studies of productions staged between 2016 and 2019, and is for an intergenerational feminist-theatre readership.

Restaging Feminisms provides a fresh perspective on the tripartite framework of liberal, radical, and socialist feminisms that served as the foundation for developing feminist approaches to theatre. This insightful account of the historical and contemporary connections between feminist staging assesses the legacies and revitalizations of all three feminist dynamics as they intersect with austerity Britain, the Weinstein scandal, and the #MeToo movement. Feminist politics, concepts, and the role of affect in shaping political attachments inform an approach that values understanding feminisms past as essential to reanimating and restaging socially progressive, feminist futures.

The volume includes case studies of productions staged between 2016 and 2019, including Caryl Churchills Escaped Alone, David Greigs adaptation of The Suppliant Women, Morgan Lloyd Malcolms Emilia, Nina Raines Consent, Townsend Theatres We Are the Lions Mr. Manager, and Laura Wades Home, Im Darling.

Written by an author with a pioneering and thirty-year-long commitment to the study of feminism and British theatre, Restaging Feminisms is a valuable resource for an intergenerational feminist-theatre readership. It caters to those who are exploring the relationship between feminism and theatre for the first time as well as those who are re-encountering the feminist dynamics and their renewed resonance on the contemporary British stage.
