Trashing Dance Theatre Journal

We are thrilled to announce the forthcoming issue of Trashing Dance Theatre Journal co-edited by João Florêncio and Owen Parry.

This special issue of Dance Theatre Journal is a dedicated and rigorous exploration of Trash in art, performance, work, and club culture. It features interviews with performance star and living-legend Penny Arcade, club performer Mouse, sex worker and activist Thierry Schaffauser, plus articles exploring the work of John Sex, Danish collective dunst, Club Wotever and the 'lowest form of performance' - living street sculptures, wasted works, and contaminated performances. Forms of trashy articulation including soap box articles, TV Chat Shows and Tabloid Newspapers interrupt and compliment more formal essays and interviews in this special issue!
