Autobiography and Performance is a course which integrates performance practices with intellectual theories in order to investigate the various ways individuals choose to construct a representation of their self/selves. We will consider how one’s history, gender, race or ethnic identification, sexuality and ability shape the creation of an autobiographical performance. How does the presence of the performer’s body affect our reception of the autobiographical voice? Consent of instructor required. Enrollment Limit: 15.
