Department of English, University of Queensland. Dissertation Submitted for the Degree of Master of Arts. Date of Submission: July 1997. '. \j-\''-ii.VZj'\'.'jjA, 'UrUi^^^(" I, Leah Gwenyth Mercer, declare that the work presented in this thesis is, to the best of my knowledge and belief, original and my own work, except as acknowledged in the text. This thesis has not been submitted, either in whole or in part, for a degree at this or any other university. Leah Gwenyth Mercer Abstract This thesis argues that the period from 1920 to 1930 represents a 'feminized' moment in Brisbane's theatre history. Using a feminist methodology, the rise of cinematic technologies and the decline of theatre as a 'popular' medium are placed in context against the rise of the female producer/actor, the rising recognition of the female audience as a market and the corresponding growth of a 'Woman's' theatrical repertoire/genre. Four female theatre workers who were based in or passed through Brisbane during this decade are examined in detail. Although the range of performance models covered is not meant to be exhaustive, these four women were chosen to represent a broad spectrum of female theatre work. This thesis is divided into three chapters. Chapter One revisits the works of seven feminist theorists as a means of identifying and establishing a number of stages that are common to their work.
