Content:
The dilemma of the gendered subaltern is vital as the group's struggle may consist of layers of oppressed states vis-à-vis gender, class, caste and race, resulting in multiple levels of marginalization. This volume provides a voice to the literary discourse of gendered identity crises and politics represented and analysed through theoretical and theatrical interventions. It underscores how the body becomes a site of identity, oppression and resistance, and interrogates the notions of identity, family structure and society. It further entails discussion on the role of participatory theatre and street performance practices and their changing conventions in the urban theatre space. As such, the volume brings together new and innovative research on the representation of the concerns of the gendered subaltern in urban theatrical spaces, and will appeal to young scholars, academicians, and practitioners in varied disciplines ranging across the humanities, social sciences and performance studies
