- This is a research monograph of 239 pages, written from 2018-2020 including 1 term of University-funded research leave and 1 term of partial buy-out from teaching. The book analyses how theatre can participate in thinking about ecology, environment and the human. In the context of theorizations of Anthropocene climate change, the book studies contemporary performances that critique and re-imagine ecological relationships, including detailed study of 21 performances from the UK, US, Canada, Europe, and Mexico, created by internationally established practitioners and also indigenous activists working from marginalised perspectives that challenge political understandings.
