Book Synopsis Disabled Theater by : Sandra Umathum
Book excerpt: 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.
