  • Ascacut Paper 6/15/16, 10:12 AM
    ASCAcut paper 6/15/16, 10:12 AM TO HEAL THE GAP BETWEEN SUBJECT AND PROTAGONIST: RESTORING FEMALE AGENCY WITH IMMERSION AND INTERACTIVITY Paper for ASCA Mini-Conference June 8, 2001, Amsterdam By Alison McMahan, Ph.D. Mieke Bal, in her book Reading "Rembrandt", critiques the so-called universalism of the myth genre of storytelling because this claim to universalism conceals the split between "the subject who tells the story about itself and the subject it tells about." (Mieke Bal, "Visual Story-Telling: Father and |Son and the Problem of Myth." From Reading "Rembrandt": Beyond the Word-Image Opposition, New York, Cambridge University Press, 1991,p.98). In her articulation of the differences between the latter two terms and her analysis of visuality in the literary accounts and of the Rembrandt images, Bal shows us how the method of discourse separates protagonist from subject, specifically, the female subject, and makes the role of protagonist inaccessible for other females. The voyeuristic spectator is invited into a position of internal focalization in Rembrandt’s etching, which incriminates the spectator, though she be female and feminist, into a site of “interpretants shaped by a male habit.” There are two solutions: the awareness created by an against-the-grain analysis, such as Kaja Silverman’s “productive looking” or to change how the story is told. Feminine agency, (“feminine” here is defined as the socially constructed ideas attached to the female sex. Poststructuralists feminists deconstruct texts in order to make explicit the power relations that structure discourse), on earth or between the pages, cannot be restored unless the gap between subject and protagonist is healed and re-adressed.

  • The Seven Ages of Musical Theatre: the Life Cycle of the Child Performer
    UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON The Seven Ages of Musical Theatre: The life cycle of the child performer by Lyndsay Barnbrook A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Humanities Faculty School of Music April 2016 \A person's a person, no matter how small." Dr. Seuss UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON Abstract Humanities Faculty School of Music Doctor of Philosophy The Seven Ages of Musical Theatre: The life cycle of the child performer by Lyndsay Barnbrook The purpose of the research reported here is to explore the part played by children in musical theatre. It aims to do this on two levels. It presents, for the first time, an historical analysis of involvement of children in theatre from its earliest beginnings to the current date. It is clear from this analysis that the role children played in the evolution of theatre has been both substantial and influential, with evidence of a number of recurring themes. Children have invariably made strong contributions in terms of music, dance and spectacle, and have been especially prominent in musical comedy. Playwrights have exploited precocity for comedic purposes, innocence to deliver difficult political messages in a way that is deemed acceptable by theatre audiences, and youth, recognising the emotional leverage to be obtained by appealing to more primitive instincts, notably sentimentality and, more contentiously, prurience. Every age has had its child prodigies and it is they who tend to make the headlines. However the influence of educators and entrepreneurs, artistically and commercially, is often underestimated. Although figures such as Wescott, Henslowe and Harris have been recognised by historians, some of the more recent architects of musical theatre, like Noreen Bush, are largely unheard of outside the theatre community.

    1 The Development of the Role of the Actor-Musician in Britain by British Directors Since the 1960’s Francesca Mary Greatorex Theatre and Performance Department Goldsmiths University of London A thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) 2 I hereby declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Signed: ……………………………………………. 3 Acknowledgements This thesis could not have been written without the generosity of many individuals who were kind enough to share their knowledge and theatre experience with me. I have spoken with actors, musical directors, set designers, directors, singers, choreographers and actor-musicians and their names and testaments exist within the thesis. I should like to thank Emily Parsons the archivist for the Liverpool Everyman for all her help with my endless requests. I also want to thank Jonathan Petherbridge at the London Bubble for making the archive available to me. A further thank you to Rosamond Castle for all her help. On a sadder note a posthumous thank you to the director Robert Hamlin. He responded to my email request for the information with warmth, humour and above all, great enthusiasm for the project. Also a posthumous thank you to the actor, Robert Demeger who was so very generous with the information regarding the production of Ninagawa’s Hamlet in which he played Polonius. Finally, a big thank you to John Ginman for all his help, patience and advice. 4 The Development of the Role of the Actor-Musician in Britain by British Directors During the Period 1960 to 2000.
