Performance Practice and Process Avis

'Clear, engaging and informative...The advice offered by the practitioners - those who have been there and are still there - is invaluable, and indeed inspirational.' - Deirdre Heddon, University of Glasgow, UK '[This book] is a successful attempt to get inside the practice of eight (female) practitioners who work and write for a range of performance disciplines...The material in the book will serve as a useful resource for teachers, students and makers of performance in a firmly pragmatic way.' - Amanda Bolt, Platform 'Instead of hiding behind a notebook, Aston and Harris take the courageous step of committing to a genuine process of enquiry where they challenge themselves to not focus on what they have learned to look for, but to be ' in the moment' and to see what arises; the book is all the richer for it...The work is characterised by a desire to get down and (sometimes literally) dirty with the processes of creative practice and offers its results with warmth, humour and integrity.' - Emma Brodzinski, Contemporary Theatre Review
