Sites of Performance: Of Time and Memory

Clark Lunberry

A primary focus of 'Sites of Performance: Of Time and Memory' is the impact of time and memory as they intersect and constitute the varied spaces of theatre. These spaces include more traditional sites of theatre, such as those involving stages and curtains, actors and audiences, as well as those other theatres or spaces of performance that range from performance and installation art, to the performance of a string quartet, and from the writing of performance, to the performance of writing.
