Reviews

This edited collection should make you uncomfortable; it is challenging and tricksy and will shift you into a liminal zone. As it makes you rethink your stance it also offers you ways forward and is therefore a 'must read' for anyone in any sphere of higher education who believes there has to be better ways of doing things. (Maggi Savin-Baden, University of Worcester) Leap into Action is an invaluable, much needed extension to our understanding of critical performative pedagogies and the deliberate design of openness in learning experiences. The range of thoughtful case studies demonstrates the role of chance, conversation, enactment, gesture, immersion, interruption, failure, movement, rupture and uncertainty in facilitating agency and enabling students to become politicised active critical thinkers and makers. (Silke Lange, Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts London) Leap into Action is a timely and lively compendium of the possibilities of a performative arts pedagogy. Set against the chilling effect that neoliberal forms of metricised assessment and satisfaction surveys have upon critical attitudes in the academy, Campbell's book is a clarion call to embrace the risks of active learning. It challenges us to fear not the personal or institutional exposures of performance in the classroom, but instead to be wide-eyed and attentive to what we might learn from it, both about ourselves and our ethical relation to others. (Gavin Butt, Northumbria University, Newcastle)
