Cultural visibility was one of its most effective mechanisms of protest in the late 1960s via posters, slogans, songs and images that gave collective purpose to ideas and campaigns. This chapter looks at performance of protest, looking specifically at the way that protest was “staged” as musical and theatrical spectacle in 1968. It focuses on three case studies: the musical spectacle of the Los Angeles rock group The Doors and the folk singer Phil Ochs who performed at the Chicago Democratic National Convention in August 1968; the theatrical experimentation of The Living Theatre’s radical play Paradise Now which was honed in Paris and performed first in New Haven, Connecticut in September 1968; and the British filmmaker Peter Whitehead’s ambivalent take on New York City in his 1969 film The Fall, the third part of which focuses on the student sit-in at Columbia University in April 1968.
