I am very pleased to have been selected to deliver a plenary paper at the 2016 American Society for Theatre Research (ASTR) conference in Minneapolis on Saturday, November 5. My talk is entitled "Going Ape: Simian Feminism and Transspecies Drag." In it I explore the politics of ape impersonation in the work of performance artists Coco Fusco and Kathryn Hunter. For more details, see the ASTR website.
