Klein","doi":"10.3138/md-65-1-1187","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3138/md-65-1-1187","url":null,"abstract":"abstract:Absurdism has long been associated with existentialist white male writers like the ones Martin Esslin analysed in The Theatre of the Absurd (1961), which coined the term that came to define a lasting dramatic genre. More recently, however, several female playwrights have begun to reinvent this movement with an uncanny brand of feminist absurdism in their intimate domestic tragicomedies. In this essay, a close reading of Sheila Callaghan’s Women Laughing Alone with Salad (2015) serves as a touchstone for analysing performances of ludic feminist futility in plays by diverse writers including Ruby Rae Spiegel, Jackie Sibblies Drury, Alice Birch, and others. In their festive moments of anti-structural and non-linear oscillation between rage and glee, these plays mark the messy implosion of an outdated feminist political project, first anticipating and later reflecting the political tensions and crises evidenced in women’s voting, activism, and protest practices since the 2016 US presidential election. Often confining their characters within domestic or interior feminized spaces like kitchens, bedrooms, hidden supermarket aisles, or girls’ locker rooms, these playwrights celebrate failure and madness in the lives and labour of their female characters. By transforming historically feminized sites into dynamic spaces of resistance as well as spectacular failure, these performances of excess, from dieting to devouring, precarity to privilege, force audiences to confront cultural blind spots and failed or incomplete work toward efficacious feminist intersectionality. Furthermore, by bridging contemporary women’s anger research with whiteness and affect studies, this essay identifies a nascent trend in US theatre with a growing international profile that engages an updated absurdist rubric within a larger feminist praxis of political revolt.","PeriodicalId":43301,"journal":{"name":"MODERN DRAMA","volume":"65 1","pages":"24 - 51"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48259164","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Chansky","doi":"10.3138/md-65-1-1148","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3138/md-65-1-1148","url":null,"abstract":"abstract:Alice Brown’s 1913 one-act play Joint Owners in Spain offers the first depiction of a person with dementia to appear on the American stage absent any belittling of its cognitively impaired character. The play features four women, is billed as a comedy, and was a favourite among little theatres of the 1910s and 1920s; it also enjoyed productions across more than seventy years. This essay explores the cultural assumptions and dramaturgical workings that made it a success in its day and then considers evolving reception strategies in order to unpack both its long-lived stage-worthiness and its importance today. While Brown is generally regarded as a New England regionalist, her work can also be read as the output of a gentle (and genteel) but firm feminist. In addition, while it is easy to read decades’ worth of revivals as an investment in the “quaint,” the generally amateur context in which these productions were mounted offers a rich site for examining the anxiety, intergenerational solidarity, and even existential dilemmas aroused by dealing with dementia in a middle-class, American context.","PeriodicalId":43301,"journal":{"name":"MODERN DRAMA","volume":"65 1","pages":"73 - 96"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44294332","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These procedures, which rearranged injured bodies in new constellations of flesh and bone, helped to inspire Artaud’s first theatrical foray. “The spectator,” he writes in 1926, “will go to the theater the way he goes to the surgeon.” I argue that literal surgical practice is crucial to Artaud’s surgical metaphors. Plastic surgery revealed to Artaud the body’s plasticity: its capacity to morph, regrow, and heal. While the physical culture movement in interwar France promoted militarized and medicalized models of the body, Artaud used surgical motifs in his plays, poems, and films to explore how physical and mental habits might be dissevered and how they might regenerate. Although Artaud ultimately considered his attempts at theatrical surgery to have failed, I conclude by looking at current applied theatre work with US military veterans, which has been shown to transform participants’ neural networks – performing, as Artaud would put it, a kind of “brain surgery.”","PeriodicalId":43301,"journal":{"name":"MODERN DRAMA","volume":"65 1","pages":"1 - 23"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47528084","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
