The sociology of theatre in an age of uncertainty and liquid societies

Summary/Abstract: The article looks at the possibilities for the sociology of theatre in an era of liquid modernity (Bauman), uncertainty, and individualism. Namely, the fields of research proposed by G. Gurvitch in the 1950s, J. Duvignaud in the 1960s, and M. Shevtsova and P. Pavis in the 1990s remain relevant today. However, sociology of theatre must engage in a dialogue with cultural studies (R. Williams, S. Hall), critical social theory (T. W. Adorno), gender and sexuality studies (J. Dolan), postcolonial studies (E. Said/G. Spivak), race studies (H. Young), reception studies (H. R. Jauss), and the renewed semiotic of Fischer-Lichte in the aesthetics of the performative. By taking these steps, the sociology of theatre can provide insights into the dynamic relationship between theatre and society.
