Abstract
In this chapter, I would like to establish that Hélène Cixous developed a form of theatre that performed the enmeshing of writer and writing - the embodiment of text, the textualization of body - in the space of the voice. Some consideration of her theoretical writings will pave the way for a discussion of her theatre.
