Advancing the study of religion and performance. * Choice *

'Bubbling over with rich insights, Wright’s book marks an important contribution to dance studies and religious studies. Her revisionist framework articulates Christianity’s stance on dance with nuance and verve.... Wright’s text has sufficient theoretical sophistication to engage a scholarly audience, but it remains accessible enough for undergraduates and the general populace. Dancing to Transform expands our conception of dance and the sacred in ways that provoke and enrapture.' -- Kathryn Dickason, Dance Research Journal
