Disability and Contemporary Performance presents a remarkable challenge to existing assumptions about disability and artistic practice. In particular, it explores where cultural knowledge about disability leaves off, and the lived experience of difference begins. Petra Kuppers, herself an award-winning artist and theorist, investigates the ways in which disabled performers challenge, change and work with current stereotypes through their work. She explores freak show fantasies and 'medical theatre' as well as live art, webwork, theatre, dance, photography and installations, to cast an entirely new light on contemporary identity politics and aesthetics. This is an outstanding exploration of some of the most pressing issues in performance, cultural and disability studies today, written by a leading practitioner and critic.

"Unimaginable Bodies" draws on the thought of Spinoza, Deleuze, and Guattari to confront medical and sociological categories of intellectual disability. This philosophical approach, coupled with Hickey-Moody's work with Restless Dance Company, promises to transform mundane sense(s) of ability and disability.--Professor Moira Gatens, University of Sydney.

Disabled Theater written by Sandra Umathum and has been published by Diaphanes this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2015 with Actors with disabilities categories.

Celebrated as an outstanding conceptual dance piece on the one hand and harshly criticised for being a contemporary freak show on the other, 'Disabled Theater' by Jerome Bel and Theater Hora polarises the public. In either case, the production raises central questions on the role of people with cognitive differences in our society, as well as on basic norms and conventions of theatre and dance. This book takes 'Disabled Theater' as a springboard to a broader discussion on theatre and disability at the intersections of politics and aesthetics, inclusion and exclusion, virtuosity and dilettantism, identity and empowerment.
