New Directions in Site Performance Practice
In this short piece, I start to tease out the challenges of examining a field of performance that, in theory, deeply understands place but has insufficiently faced the impacts of climate coloniality on place, in part due to the fact that the field has largely been defined and developed by white researchers in the Global North. Specifically, by looking at a recent project called VINES, initiated by me and Brandy Leary, I dig into the site performa…
Ecological Performance and ‘Settler Creep’
The penetration of climate change into our individual and collective consciousness(es) has been a slow process. Using Una Chaudhuri’s (1994) initial demand for a new era of ecological theatre (‘“There must be a lot of fish in that lake”: Toward an ecological theater’, Theater 25(1): 23–31) and Carl Lavery’s (2018) follow-up volume that asked ‘what can theatre do ecologically’ as a springboard (Performance and Ecology: What can theatre do? Abingdo…
Danse in situ et éthique environnementale
Ce texte aborde la question de l’investissement dans le lieu par les artistes chorégraphiques œuvrant in situ, en scrutant d’abord les conditions historiques qui ont accompagné les premiers praticiens de la danse in situ. Il esquisse ensuite une histoire des champs de l’éthique environnementale et de la danse in situ, qui ont émergé simultanément. Tout en proposant une chronique de l’évolution de ces domaines, il met l’accent sur leurs liens et e…
Site, Adapt, Perform
In recent years, arts festivals around the globe have become enamoured of touring, site-based performance. Such serialised site work is growing in popularity due to its accessibility, its spectacular characteristics, and its adaptive qualities. Employing practice-as-research methodologies to dissect the basis of such site-adaptive performances, the author highlights her discovery of the crumbling foundation of the adaptation discourse by way of h…
Site and Re-Site
In this article, I investigate the historical precedents of site-adaptive dance. After walking through the mobility discourse as applied to site-specific art by such scholars as Miwon Kwon, Fiona Wilkie, and Victoria Hunter, I examine the mobile site works of North American choreographers Ann Carlson, PearsonWidrig DanceTheater, Eiko & Koma, and Stephan Koplowitz as exemplary of early attempts to take site dance on tour. Finally, I argue for the …
Bodies in place
This article examines the significance of the performer–place relationship in dances created for the camera. By looking at my own dance films as well as those from Maya Deren to Isabel Rocamora, I uncover the deep import that location has taken on in the dance film genre. Owing to the near absence of spoken text, the filming strategies used in the genre (including frequent use of close-up and long shots) and a keen interest in narrative, place ha…
