Description

Women in Asian Performance offers a vital re-assessment of how women contribute to Asian performance traditions. Edited by Arya Madhavan, this collection brings together leading global scholars to address current debates regarding femininity and female representation on stage. By looking at historical, cultural, and performative contexts, this work provides a new perspective on the aesthetic theories and acting conventions that have shaped gender ideas in Asian performance for centuries. This scholarly text is structured into three parts, starting with a focus on erasure. It serves as an important intervention for students, researchers, and professionals interested in theatre history and gender studies. The book examines how long-standing traditions impact the way women are viewed and portrayed in performing arts, making it a necessary resource for those studying the intersection of politics and performance.
