Performance Studies Theory is an academic framework that systematically examines culturally situated acts of performance as embodied, ritualized, or staged events through interdisciplinary methodologies rooted in anthropology, theater, and cultural studies, distinguishing itself by analyzing performative behavior not merely as artistic representation but as constitutive of social identity, power relations, and lived experience.
