Local Acts: Community-Based Performance in the United States - Rutgers Series: the Public Life of the Arts
Jan Cohen-Cruz
A survey of community-based performance in the US from its roots, to its flourishing during the 1960s, to present-day popular culture. It provides descriptions of performances and processes, first-person stories, and analysis and shows how ritualism reinforces community identification while aestheticism enables locals to transgress cultural norms.
