Popis: This book’s final chapter moves the appraisal of historical perspectives of performativity and events of the 1960s into the present decade. Taking the 1964 Tokyo Olympic Games (Games of the XVIII Olympiad) as a theme, I consider how a ‘documentary theatre’ performance made by the Port B company (Poruto Bii) about the Olympics can serve to broach a wider discussion about the 1960s and memory.
