Spanning twenty years of scholarship, this collection of essays by Tiina Rosenberg examines the intersection of critical theory, activist aesthetics, and performing arts. Rosenberg applies a distinct queer feminist lens to theatre, opera, and film, exploring how performance acts as a vital site for political agency, anti-racist intervention, and the disruption of heteronormative structures. Grounded in the foundational theories of Adrienne Rich and Monique Wittig, the text investigates the cultural power of queer and lesbian representation, the subversion of gender binaries on stage, and the radical potential of performance art as a tool for feminist agitation.
