  • Performative Identities of Professional Baseball Players on the Nineteenth and Twentieth Century American Stage
    FROM THE BALL FIELDS TO BROADWAY: PERFORMATIVE IDENTITIES OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL PLAYERS ON THE NINETEENTH AND TWENTIETH CENTURY AMERICAN STAGE BY TRAVIS WAYNE STERN DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Theatre in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2011 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Esther Kim Lee, Chair Associate Professor Adrian Burgos, Jr. Associate Professor Peter A. Davis Assistant Professor Valleri Hohman ABSTRACT This study examines the theatrical careers of four professional baseball players who appeared in multi-act plays on the American stage in the decades surrounding the turn of the twentieth century – Adrian “Cap” Anson, Mike “King” Kelly, Christy Mathewson, and Ty Cobb. As a player reached a level of celebrity in the game of baseball, theatrical producers were able to transfer the persona the player had built on the field onto the stage. The formation of each player‟s persona is analyzed as well as how the persona was transferred to the stage and interacted with the changing nature of American identity. Anson‟s appearance as a fictionalized version of himself in 1895 illustrated how baseball was attempting to appeal to a more respectable audience. Kelly‟s performances based on his wealth and success from the game in the 1880s and 1890s transcended his image as solely a baseball player. A play co-authored by Mathewson in 1913 examined the real-life issue of club ownership by a woman in a melodramatic setting that uses Mathewson‟s own persona to help model how baseball could deal with such a concern.
