This book is a study of post-millennial solo performance in the UK and Western Europe that explores the contentious relationship between identity, individuality and neoliberalism. By moving between the practices and traditions of theatrical monologue, stand-up comedy, cabaret and live art, it identifies vulnerability, complicity and optimism as key responses to neoliberalism's preference - if not demand - for self-made subjects.Beginning in a study of the arts festivals which characterise the economies in which solo performance circulates, each chapter Featuring artists as varied as La Ribot, David Hoyle, Neil Bartlett, Bridget Christie, Rosana Cade and Tanja Ostojic, it provides an essential account of the diverse practices which characterise contemporary solo performance, and their significance to debates concerning equality, community and social participation.
