| 520 | |a Throughout history, theatre has allowed actors and audiences to consider the possibilities and realities of violence. This book explores the use of violence in theatre and its effect on spectators. Critically engaging with examples of stage combat, rape, terrorism, wrestling and historical re-enactments, it questions perceived boundaries between real and simulated violence and asks how violence can challenge social structures. Ultimately, Nevitt argues that performed violence can be part of a desire to create a more peaceful world. | ||
