Performative cross-gendering and disciplinary border-crossing

The interest for the “third gender” collides with the theoretical approach to gender as a performative construction, often blurring not only the borders between the two sex-gender poles, but also between disciplines called upon to theorize the sexual criss-crossings. The paper questions one of such border-crossings, the one between theatre and “theory”, since “performance” and “performative” derive principally from the already hybrid field of Schechner’s performance theory.
