    Ludlam, Charles (1943-1987) by Clarence R. Slavens Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Born April 12, 1943 in Floral Park, Long Island, a son of Joseph William and Marjorie Braun Ludlam, Charles Ludlam became an important innovator in the American theater of the last half of the twentieth century. Inspired by the puppet shows and movies he saw as a child, as well as by his father's humor and his delight in dressing up in costumes, he became involved in school and community theater at a young age and founded the Students' Repertory Theatre in 1961 in Northport, Long Island. Ludlam graduated from Hofstra University in 1965 before moving to New York City to begin a career as one of the innovators of what became known as "Theatre of the Ridiculous." While at Hofstra, according to Steven Samuels, Ludlam "finally discovered the source of his outrageous, excessive 'difference': he was queer." Ludlam made his first New York stage appearance in 1966 at the Play-House of the Ridiculous, a group formed by playwright Ronald Tavel and director John Vaccaro. After appearing in two productions there, Ludlam formed his own troupe, the Ridiculous Theatrical Company, which at first performed in Greenwich Village bars and other venues, and began writing his own plays. In his plays, Ludlam works to decenter the expectations of various cultural groups, including heterosexuals, advocates of high art, and those involved in what he considered to be a sometimes too pretentious avant garde theater. To do so, his work employs camp representations of traditional works.

The first two are matters of reception history: first, the poem has been understudied; and second, most major extant studies of the poem have been grossly or subtly homophobic. The other two problems are matters of literary criticism: Juvenal’s ninth satire has traditionally been read as an attack on homosexuality, when in fact it is neither an attack, nor is it about homosexuality.

    Access Provided by University of Queensland at 02/17/13 10:42PM GMT The Ridiculous Performance of Taylor Mac Sean F. Edgecomb Taylor Mac is a contemporary actor and playwright who carries on the tradition of the Ridiculous Theatre for the twenty-first century. After solidifying his reputation as an actor in the 1990s, Mac became aware of the first-wave Ridiculous canon of Jack Smith, Ronald Tavel, and Ethyl Eichelberger and immersed himself in the works of Charles Ludlam. Ludlam, considered by many to be the seminal Ridiculous auteur, developed the Ridiculous form by writing, directing, and appearing in twenty-nine original plays for his Ridiculous Theatrical Company (RTC) between its founding in 1967 and his untimely death in 1987. Ludlam’s Ridiculous aesthetic juxtaposed the modernist tradition of the avant-garde with camp, clowning, and drag. Forming within the gay community at the watershed of gay liberation, it was one of the first fully realized queer theatre forms in the United States. More specifically, it mixed high literary culture with low pop culture, generating a pastiche that reflected and satirized contemporary society.1 Farcical in nature, the Ridiculous contributed to the emergence of the postmodern clown,2 a comic figure who appropriates traditional clowning skills and “fragments, subverts and inverts” them to create a self-reflexive and deconstruc- tive performance.3 By layering Ludlam’s clown (an entertainer combining traditional Sean F. Edgecomb is the director of the Bachelor of Creative Arts and a lecturer in drama at the Uni- versity of Queensland in Australia. His primary research interests are queer performance, queer theory, and theatre for social change, with a particular focus on the construction and cultural dissemination of LGBTQ history.
