Staging Decadence is a film that introduces and maps how a few key performance makers and scholars have thought about decadence, and why they keep coming back to its pleasures and complexity.
It offers a taste of various, promiscuously-sourced histories, journeying from ancient Roman actor-emperors, to ethereal plays of the 1890s, countercultural bohemians in the 1960s, the culture wars in the 1990s, right through to theatre makers and live artists in our own day.
