"This is the first collection of original essays, articles, and images from authors, activists, artists, and scholars that grapple with the explicit body and the staging of sex across multiple spaces - from burlesque to drag, to sex work to celebrity culture. This book uncovers how gender and sexuality collide on stage in dynamic, dramatic, and thought-provoking ways. By taking a broad view of sex and the stage, it tracks influences across the underground, marginalised, and the mainstream, from 'high' contemporary live art to the 'low' of entertainment. Includes interviews, memoir, photo essays, performance scripts, roundtable discussions, flash nonfiction, and the traditional essay"--

This is the first collection of original essays, articles, and images from authors, activists, artists, and scholars that grapple with the explicit body and the staging of sex across multiple spaces – from burlesque to drag, to sex work, to traditional theatre.

Sex on Stage uncovers how gender and sexuality collide on stage in dynamic, dramatic, and thought-provoking ways. By taking a broad view of sex and the stage, this book tracks influences across the underground, marginalised, and the mainstream, from 'high' contemporary live art to the 'low' of entertainment.

Across these mediums, the staging of sex pushes against decorums of respectability, instead flaunting the body to shock, to entertain, to tell stories, and to display a new kind of gender expression. The subjects and contributors included in this collection inhabit their bodies-in fact, demand the agency of the body-in self-authored ways. Gender and sexuality here are performative, and what comes into being challenges traditional constructions of both femininity and sexuality.

Arvustused

This is an engaging and wide-ranging collection, exploring several of the many facets of sex on stage. The work included here is sharp, insightful, and well-written, and the text as a whole is a pleasure to read. * Helen Hester, University of West London, UK * This edgy, innovatively structured anthology presents a multi-faceted look at the raced/classed/gendered exploration of performance, transformation, and joy. Some pieces ingeniously approximate the experience of being inside a performance. The anthology is buoyant, boisterous, challenging, sometimes furious, always moving * Lizzie Borden * A cross-stage panoply of perspectives is offered in this unique and important collection; it's a book full of individual voices, moving bodies, and generative conversations, often breaking down the boundaries between scholarship, experience, and practice. Sex on Stage is a lively, rigorous, and thought-provoking enquiry that evokes the thrills and quandaries of performance. * Katherine Angel, author of Tomorrow Sex Will Be Good Again *
