The 'Place' and Practice of Site-Specific Theatre and Performance; J.Tompkins -- PART I: SITE-SPECIFICITY AND ECONOMICS -- Rethinking Site-Specificity: monopoly, urban space, and the cultural economics of site-specific performance; M.McKinnie -- PART II: SITE-SPECIFICITY AND THE NARRATIVES OF HISTORY -- Rehearsing Across Space and Place: Rethinking A Masque Presented at Ludlow Castle; S.Bennett & J.Sanders -- Embodied Presence and Dislocated Spaces: playing the audience in Ten Thousand Several Doors in a promenade, site-specific performance of John Webster's The Duchess of Malfi; J.Collins -- Haunted House: staging The Persians with the British Army; M.Pearson -- Toiling, tolling and telling: performing dissensus; K.Irwin -- PART III:SITE SPECIFITIY AND THE SLIPPAGE OF PLACE -- Beyond site-specificity: environmental heterocosms on the street; S.Haedicke -- Repetition and performativity: site-specific performance and film as living monument; A.Birch -- Contemporary ekkeklemas in site-specific performance; L.Ferris -- 'Places, like property prices, go up and down': site-specificity, regeneration and The Margate Exodus; L.Owen -- PART IV: SITE-SPECIFICITY AND THEATRICAL INTIMACY -- Ambulatory Audiences and Animate Sites: staging the spectator in site-specific performance; K.Zaiontz -- Immersive negotiations: binaural perspectives on site-specific sound;B.Barton & R.Windeyer -- My sites set on you: site-specificity and subjectivity in 'intimate theatre'; H.Iball -- PART V: SITE SPECIFICITY AND POLITICS -- Siting the People: Power, Protest and Public Space; S.Nield.

Performing Site-Specific Theatre turns a critical eye to the increasingly popular form of site-specific performance. By re-assessing this contemporary practice, the book investigates the nature of the relationship between 'site' and 'performance.' Site-specific performance operates differently from performance that takes place within a theatre venue because it seeks to match form and content (and place and space) more finely than does theatre that takes place inside conventional venues. Yet the form also encourages an investigation of how we might understand 'site' as less fixed or less specifically geographical; it broadens the types of relevant 'spaces' we might consider. The form also enables us to address a range of performative issues, from the development of site-specific 'soundscapes' to the role of the spectator in site-specific performance. The contributions, from leading theorists and practitioners, demonstrate how site-specific performance extends theatre's potential engagement with its geographical and political communities.
