It features work by pioneering companies including Gob Squad, Headlong Theatre and Theatre of Debate as well as offering fresh analysis of global blockbusters such as 'Wicked' and 'Urinetown'. The book offers detailed description and analysis of theatre and performance practices as well as broader commentary on the politics of theatre as public engagement with science.

520 8 |a "This book explores how theatre and performance practices engage with emerging scientific themes from artificial intelligence to genetics and climate change. It looks at a wide range of performance forms from the spectacle of the Paralympics Opening Ceremony to Broadway musicals; from experimental contemporary performance to educational theatre; from Somali poetic drama to grime videos. It features work by pioneering companies Gob Squad, Headlong Theatre and Theatre of Debate as well as offering fresh analysis of global blockbusters like 'Wicked' and 'Urinetown'. The book offers detailed description and analysis of theatre and performance practices as well as broader commentary on the politics of theatre as public engagement with science. It documents important examples of collaborative practice with extended discussion of the Theatre of Debate process developed by Y Touring theatre company, exploration of bilingual theatre-making in East London and an account of how grime MCs and dermatologists ended up making a film together in Birmingham. The interdisciplinary approach draws on contemporary research in theatre and performance studies in combination with key ideas from science studies. It shows how theatre can hold together different ways of knowing and offer an important perspective on what the philosopher of science Isabelle Stengers has called 'cosmopolitics'. 'Science in performance' is essential reading for researchers, students and practitioners working between science and the arts within fields such as theatre and performance studies, science communication, interdisciplinary arts and health humanities." -- Back cover.
