(Ebook) Off Sites: Contemporary Performance beyond Site-Specific by Bertie Ferdman ISBN 9780809334704, 0809334704

Honorable Mention, ATHE's 2018 Outstanding Book Award
Contextualizing the techniques and methods of the incredibly rich and vital genre of site-specific performance, author Bertie Ferdman traces the evolution of that term. Originally used for experimental staging practices and then later also for engaged situational events,site-specificis no longer sufficient for the genre’s many contemporary variations.
Using the termoff-site, Ferdman illustrates five distinct ways artists have challenged the disciplinary framework of site-specific theatre: blurring the traditional boundaries between the fictional and the real; changing how the audience and actor interact with each other and whether they are physically together or apart; fabricating sites from physically bound, conceptually constructed, or virtual spaces; staging live situations in real/nonreal and often mediated encounters; and challenging our preconceived notions of time and space. Tracing the genealogy of site-based work through the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, Ferdman outlines the theoretical groundwork for her study in the introduction. Individual chapters focus on distinct types of off-sites—the interdisciplinary discourse ofdisciplinary sites; the spaces of audience engagement withspectator sites; the dislocation of time fortemporal sites; and the historiographical spaces of mapping forurban sites.   
Ferdman examines site-based work being done in the Americas by contemporary companies and artists experimenting with new forms and practices for site-driven theatre. Key productions discussed includePrivate Momentby David Levine,Geyser Landby Mary Ellen Strom and Ann Carlson, Jim Findlay’sDream of the Red Chamber, and Lola Arias’Mi Vida Después.
