Abstract
The theme of the Dramatic Learning Spaces Conference - Performing Identities - at which the ideas in this article were first presented, fed my pre-occupation with the lived realities of voice practice in the multi-lingual South African context. The idea of performing identity spoke particularly to a pre-occupation with what might be described as the embedded politics of voice practice in a western theatre tradition. In a previous paper presented at the same conference series, I was concerned with the power relations of languages and accents and how these impact on voice work (Mills 2006).
