Performing Glam Rock: Gender and Theatricality in Popular Music

Situates the glam rock phenomenon historically and examines it as a set of performance strategies. This book explores the ways in which glam rock, while celebrating the showmanship of 1950s rock and roll, began to undermine rock's adherence to the ideology of authenticity in the late 1960s.
