Staging Hong Kong: Gender and Performance in Transition (ConsumAsia) Book

This book presents a comprehensive study of Zuni Icosahedron, a Hong Kong avant-garde theatre and dance company, and calls into question the relationship between culture and politics during the last years of British colonial rule. Through both fieldwork and textual analysis, the author explores the double-bind tensions between Chinese and western aesthetic forms, while examining identity and gender within representation as part of the dramatisation of an increasingly uncertain present. Incorporating insights from cultural studies, feminism, anthropology and queer theory, this imaginative book unpacks current debates over 'Hong Kong identity' through the kaleidoscope of avant-garde theatre performances.Read More
