Description

The Changing Room traces the origins and variations of theatrical cross-dressing through the ages and across cultures, examining tribal rituals and shamanic practices in the Balkans and Chinese-Tibet, the gender-bending elements of Greek and early Christian religion, and the homosexual appeal of the boy actor on traditional stages in China, Japan and England. This comprehensive study explores the emergence of the dame comedian, the principal boy, the glamour drag artiste and the male impersonator, whilst analysing artists such as David Bowie and Boy George. Essential reading for theatre historians, performers and anyone interested in how costume, identity and performance intersect across theatrical traditions worldwide.
