Following the author's fieldwork in the UK, Bosnia Herzegovina, Poland, Germany, Greece, and Sicily, chapters describe, investigate, and reflect upon live performance events which have taken place in sites of decay and abandonment. The book's main focus is upon modern economic ruins and ruins of warfare. Each chapter provides several case studies based upon the author's own site visits and interviews with actors, directors, producers, curators, writers, and other artists. The book contextualises these events within the wider framework of Ruin Studies and provides brief summaries of how we might understand the ruin in terms of time, politics, culture, and atmospheres. The book is particularly preoccupied with artists' reasons and motivations for placing performance events in ruined spaces and how these work dramaturgically. 410 0$aPerforming Landscapes,$x2947-5570 606 $aPerforming arts 606 $aTheater 606 $aTheater$xHistory 606 $aActors 606 $aTheatre and Performance Arts 606 $aContemporary Theatre and Performance 606 $aPerformers and Practitioners 606 $aApplied Theatre 615 0$aPerforming arts. 615 0$aTheater. 615 0$aTheater$xHistory. 615 0$aActors. 615 14$aTheatre and Performance Arts. 615 24$aContemporary Theatre and Performance. 615 24$aPerformers and Practitioners. 615 24$aApplied Theatre. 676 $a720 676 $a792 700 $aMurray$b Simon$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0779134 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483738303321 996 $aPerforming Ruins$92841909 997 $aUNINA
