From the study of staged performances to examinations of the performing body in everyday life, this book demonstrates the enormous profitability of moving beyond disability as metaphor. . . . It's a lesson that many of our cultural institutions desperately need to learn." -Martin F. Norden, University of Massachusetts-Amherst This groundbreaking collection imagines disabled bodies as "bodies in commotion"-bodies that dance across artistic and discursive boundaries, challenging our understanding of both disability and performance. In the book's essays, leading critics and artists explore topics that range from theater and dance to multi-media performance art, agit-prop, American Sign Language theater, and wheelchair sports. Bodies in Commotion is the first collection to consider the mutually interpretive qualities of these two emerging fields, producing a dynamic new resource for artists, activists, and scholars. 410 0$aCorporealities. 606 $aPeople with disabilities and the performing arts 606 $aPerforming arts 615 0$aPeople with disabilities and the performing arts. 615 0$aPerforming arts. 676 $a791.087 701 $aSandahl$b Carrie$f1968-$01860174 701 $aAuslander$b Philip$f1956-$01696067 712 02$aMichigan Publishing (University of Michigan), 801 0$bMiU 801 1$bMiU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910966447903321 996 $aBodies in commotion$94464757 997 $aUNINA
