This volume explores the intersection of performance art and critical theory through the work of Deb Margolin. It presents a dialogue between the artist and a critical theorist, aiming to illuminate both the practice of performance art and the methodologies of critical analysis.

The 'Critical Performance' series is designed to foster deeper understanding by pairing practitioners with theorists. This volume, focusing on Deb Margolin, likely offers insights into her contributions to performance art, particularly through her work with Split Britches. The critical dialogue format suggests an academic or intellectually engaged audience interested in the theoretical underpinnings of performance.
