Kate Elswit

Kate is an academic, curator, dramaturg, and dancer, who likes when those jobs get mixed up together. Her award-winning books are about the strange things spectators claimed to see while watching dance during the Weimar Republic (OUP, 2014), as well as the interdependence between theatre and dance (Palgrave, 2018). She has also published widely on cultural studies, interdisciplinary performance, exile and migration, spectatorship, technology, embodiment, archives and reenactment, and practice-based research.
