Description

What tools do performers use to provoke their audiences to change? What is the nature and potential extent of this change? Provocative and Transformative Performance looks at the potential of performance to provoke attitudinal and behavioural change. Through a combination of theoretical and practical research, it attempts to locate specific characteristics of performances that may be both provocative and transformative. Alchemy permeates the book, weaving through the analysis as a metaphor for transformation. The alchemical moment of ?projection? is particularly significant; this is the climax, the final operation before gold is achieved. This book is a methodological and evaluative engagement with provocative and transformative performance, taking into account the intention of the performer, the instrumentation performers employ in order to provoke and transform their audiences, and the potential illumination of an issue for the audience through performance. Through this theoretical framework, it aims to throw light on the ways in which performance can provoke transformation.
