Opis

Act as a Feminist maps a female genealogy of UK actor training practices from 1970-2020 as an alternative to traditional male lineages. It re-orientates thinking about acting through its intersections with feminisms and positions it as a critical pedagogy, fit for purpose in the twenty-first century.
