Embodying the dead : writing, playing, performing

Hind, Claire2020
Books
Where do we find the dead? Do the dead appear in our dreams? What is it like to play dead? This book is an exciting exploration of the relationship between death and play in performance. Exploring a range of artists and creative disciplines that remember, personify and re-imagine the dead, it also draws significantly on the authors' collaborative practice. Spanning an eight-year period of writing, playing and performing in international contexts, the work of Gary Winters and Claire Hind is a unique braid of visual performance, theatre and textual dramaturgy. 'Embodying the Dead' includes scripts and scores of their performances, original creative texts, interviews with internationally renowned artists and a series of practice-led research tasks to support readers creating their own imaginative performance work.
