With diverse case studies featuring the work of La Ribot, David Hoyle, Oreet Ashery, Bridget Christie, Tanja Ostojic, Adrian Howells and Nassim Soleimanpour, the book examines the role of singular or 'exceptional' subjects in constructing and challenging assumed notions of communal sociability and togetherness, while drawing fresh insight from the fields of sociology, gender studies and political philosophy to reconsider theatre's attachment to singular lives and experiences. Framed by a detailed exploration of arts festivals as encapsulating the material, entrepreneurial circumstances of contemporary performance-making, this is the first major critical study of solo work since the millennium. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Gay people and the performing arts|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2003006224|zGreat Britain.|0https:/ /id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79023147-781 650 0 Homosexuality in the theater|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2004009860|zGreat Britain.|0https:/ /id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79023147-781 650 7 Homosexuality in the theater.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1736145 651 7 Great Britain.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204623 655 0 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aGreer, Stephen, 1978-|tQueer exceptions. |dManchester : Manchester University Press, 2019 |z1526113694|w(OCoLC)1084568482 830 0 Theatre (Manchester, England)|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n2002025981 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1942186|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
