About this product

Product Information

Closely reading a range of performance work from the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, Naming Theatre is a ground-breaking study of theatre's growing obsession with technologies and effects of naming. How do theatre-makers such as Ping Chong, Anne Bogart, Suzan-Lori Parks, Forced Entertainment, Lightwork, Ridiculusmus, Theodora Skipitares, Paula Vogel, and Riot Group intervene in naming practices across domains such as medicine, political activism, philosophy, horror films, television and print journalism, anthropology, advertising and brand development, semiotics, military training, and genetics?

Reviews
'Naming Theatre offers readers a comprehensive understanding of how names populate theatre and how they structure knowledge about a play. This book is an important contribution to the field...[and] prompts theatre scholars to expand the discourse related to their work (something which is frequently ignored) by establishing ways of questioning it.' - Stella Keramida, Platform ''Naming' is James Frieze's key term in a critique of identity and identification, which he sees as both a theme and a technique in contemporary theatre and performance... The book's strength and its substance is the exegesis of text and performance, through an ingenious variety of examples of naming as a process which embeds the subject in language, or alternatives strategies which manipulate naming to satirize or escape from such an inscription. It is the level of detail and the application of a mutating but consistent insight that is impressive here, and the book will be as useful as a collection of performance analyis as for its overall thesis.' - Gareth White, NTQ

Was sent the wrong item. I ordered a CD and I received an LP instead. Two different places on the description said that it was a used CD in good condition. When I emailed the seller about it I got a generic reply telling me that they would get to it when they can and that if I send a second message it will just delay the process. That is terrible customer service. If they have time to send me an email message at all then they have time to initiate a refund or to answer the question I asked.

The book arrived in a plastic envelope with not protection and unfortunately it looked like the book was damaged in transit because of it. The items original ETA was April 18th but arrived on April 22nd. I requested a refund after seeing the quality of the book and the seller responded with a full refund and an apology for the quality. I really appreciated the customer service but was sad to see the book not in the quality described.

My sincere apologies, the item was not what I expected, (to NO FAULT of the SELLER at all.) It came in good condition however, I must’ve of misunderstood the description, I thought the names would be transliterated into English, but it's in Hebrew. I thought it would give the Hebrew meaning to the name/ places. Also I noticed that the dust jacket was different than the advertised photo. If I may, I'd like to request a refund please and continue my search... Kind regards.
