Feminist and Queer Performance by Sue-Ellen Case

Feminist and Queer Performance

Critical Strategies

Sue-Ellen Case

Review

‘By way of her strong writing style, Case leaves the over-determined space of an abstracted feminism for an international and multidisciplinary stage, foregrounding questions of race, class and sexual identitiy that lead into her more recent work on a non-essentialist eco-feminism, outlined in the introduction to this volume. Case’s insistence on interactivity and performativity across disciplines and cultural borders throughout these essays demonstrates how her commitment to socio-political themes on an inernational scale is part of a broader praxis.’ – Fiona Anderson, Contemporary Theatre Review
