Title: Dance and identity in Aotearoa and the world
Description: "All of the essays are about identity and there is a sense in which some older essays are being brought up to date with recent literature especially theses written since 2010. Dance and Identity in Aotearoa and the world is about performance, and identity. Some of the later essays are about navigating, negotiating and constructing identity and the first essay introduces that discussion. The later essays include the discussion of Dalmatian identity and the reviews of the Ora Gallery, Outrageous Fortune and the television performances of Suzie Cato. This collection is more international than earlier editions of Te Pu Tapere or, to use the older name for the collection From the Depot Takirua. The writing on El Cantante and The Sopranos takes the discussion of identity abroad and, hopefully, brings something back to Aotearoa- New Zealand.
