Description

A Strange Proximity explores the profound relationship between audience and performer, examining how stage presence shapes ethical engagement in contemporary theatre. Jon Foley Sherman presents the first phenomenological account of ethics generated directly from theatrical productions rather than applied externally to them. This groundbreaking work argues that the ethical possibilities of performance rest not in the performers or show itself, but in how we attend to others within the space of performance. Sherman investigates the choices made in performance about attention and presence, offering readers a unique perspective on the implications of stage presence for understanding human connection and ethical responsibility. Essential for theatre scholars, performance practitioners, and anyone interested in the intersection of performance studies and ethics.

Key Features

A Strange Proximity provides the first phenomenological account of ethics derived from contemporary theatrical productions and live performance contexts.

Jon Foley Sherman examines how stage presence functions as a key concept for understanding performance, attention, and ethical relationships between audiences and performers.

This book explores the ethical possibilities of theatre by focusing on the 'how' of attending to others rather than on performers or productions themselves.

Published by Routledge, this work contributes to performance studies and ethics discourse within theatre and performing arts scholarship.

The text investigates the relationship between audience and performer as central to understanding how ethical choices emerge in performance spaces.
