“Encounters in Performance Philosophy covers a wide range of theorists, in a variety of methods and from different disciplinary perspectives. … Encounters in Performance Philosophy is a volume that not only records an already existing body of deeply vital and thoughtful practices. It also paves the way for forms of research able to incorporate process and novelty through an actual nomadism unencumbered by hubristic prescription.” (Nik Wakefield, Contemporary Theatre Review, Vol. 25 (4), October, 2015)
