Description

What is the relation between performance and pedagogy? What does the teaching of performance offer to other kinds of knowledge encounters and exchanges in our pluriversal world?

These questions are urgent in the light of profound changes in higher education and the place performance has in that setting and its peripheries. This open access book spanning diverse educational and research contexts takes up the task of engaging performance pedagogy in the precarities of the now, by tending anew to the relation between learning, doing, and thinking.

The collection unfolds as a collaborative inquiry into performance pedagogy encompassing both the study of aesthetic events called ‘performances’, and an expanded notion of performance as pedagogy. In this dual approach, to teach and learn performance is to teach and learn how to do things with our words and actions, and also to teach and learn what things do to others and to the world. Performance pedagogy opens performance to the world, and invites the world to performance.
