description Through an exegesis and poetry collection, this thesis explores how womanhood is performed in the contemporary prose poem. Dress Rehearsals is a book-length-poetry-collection that documents a decade of performing womanhood.

The PhD proposes an energised synergy between prose poetry, gender performance and the mosh pits of live music.
