"Scenes of Infidelity: Feminism in the Theatre" is a critical revision of questions in feminist theory of the theatre, based on readings of texts by three writers who in different ways inform and challenge prevalent ideas of feminism as a mode of knowledge and as dramatic strategy: American writers Maria Irene Fornes and Adrienne Kennedy, and the British writer Caryl Churchill. The study also opens up to reflections of a more general nature, pertaining to avant-garde practice, to problems of spectatorship, and to the relationship between politics and aesthetics.
