Performing Remains is a new study exploring the role of the fake, the false and the faux in contemporary performance. Across seven essays, Schneider, an authority in the field of theatre and performance studies, presents a forensic examination of both contemporary and historical performance, drawing on a variety of sources including the America plays of Linda Mussmann and Suzan-Lori Parks, performances of Marina Abramovic and Allison Smith, and the continued popular appeal of Civil War reenactments, while questioning the importance of representation throughout history and today. Performing Remains is a rigorous investigation into the aesthetic and political potential of reenactments.
