| Abstract
|
:
|
'Performance Affects' explores performance projects in disaster & war zones to argue that joy, beauty & celebration should be the inspiration for the politics of community-based performance practice, seeking to realign the field of Applied Theatre away from effects towards an affective role, connected to sensations of pleasure.
