Founded in 1987, Goat Island is a Chicago-based performance group known worldwide for its intimate, low-tech, highly-physical performances which combine elements of live art, experimental
theater, and postmodern dance. Featuring contributions by seven members of the company, including its co-founders, and six creative arts faculty from the U.S. and UK, this is the first book to
document and critique the company's performances and processes. Also included is a section on teaching strategies for practical workshops. The text is organized to structurally mirror the
workings of a Goat Island performance, offering readers multiple ways to read the work. For students, academics, and practitioners in performance studies, theater, and dance. Annotation 穢2008
