Description

Butoh America documents the pioneering artists, networks and festivals that introduced Butoh dance to the United States and Mexico from 1970 to the early 2000s. This is the first comprehensive book to trace American Butoh's development from its San Francisco inception in 1976, when it aligned with avant-garde performance art in experimental galleries and theaters. The work examines how key venues like La MaMa in New York and the Festival Internacional Cervantino in Guanajuato established Butoh as a respected experimental form in the Americas. By gathering previously scattered histories into a single narrative, the book provides essential context for understanding how this Japanese dance tradition took root and evolved within North American and Mexican cultural landscapes.

Key Features

Butoh America is the first book to consolidate the history of Butoh dance development across the United States and Mexico into one unified narrative.

The book traces American Butoh from its 1976 San Francisco origins through its evolution in avant-garde performance art spaces and experimental theaters.

Features detailed examination of key festivals including La MaMa in New York and the Festival Internacional Cervantino in Guanajuato that legitimized Butoh.

Published by Routledge as part of the Advances in Theatre & Performance Studies academic series for scholars and dance historians.
