Performance, Transport and Mobility is an investigation into how performance moves, how it engages with ideas about movement, and how it potentially shapes our experiences of movement. Using a critical framework drawn from the ´mobility turn´ in the social sciences, it analyses a range of performances that explore what it means to be in transit.

"The prose is fresh and vivid, inviting the reader to imagine travelling alongside the artists. ... The book makes a convincing case for mobility as an important way of understanding contemporary performance and, more importantly, for performance as a way of understanding how we move and are moved through the world." (Kyle Gillette, Contemporary Theatre Review, Vol. 28 (2), June, 2018)
