  • Figurations of Adolescence on the Late Twentieth-Century Stage
    I Scenes of Instruction, Scenes of Seduction: Figurations of Adolescence on the Late Twentieth-Century Stage A dissertation submitted by Carolyn E Salvi In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In English Tufts University August 2011 Copyright 2011, Carolyn E Salvi Advisors: Dr. Joseph Litvak and Dr. Martin Harries II Abstract This dissertation seeks to trouble our culture's overvaluation of innocence by exploring the literary consequences of theatrical situations in which the scene of seduction and the scene of instruction are presumed to be one and the same. Because the adolescent stands in between the more actively theorized positions of child and adult, partaking of characteristics of both but not fully either, the adolescent crystallizes our cultural anxieties about what it means to pass on culture linguistically, morally, aesthetically, and politically. By focusing on the figure of the adolescent as the proto-citizen I am able to investigate the degree to which the overvaluation of innocence is connected to a desire to deny possibilities for radical social transformation. Chapter 1 reads Tom Stoppard's play Arcadia in order to establish norms of discourse around adolescence: more specifically investigating how the text participates in fetishization of the child figure in order to stave off the threat of the teenager's uncanny knowledge. Chapter 2 uses Peter Shaffer's play Equus to map out the widespread influence of Freud's legacy on our modern conceptions of adolescence and adolescent sexuality, exploring how deviant sexuality is constructed as a potent threat to the social order which dangerously reduces the adolescent‘s ability to take their place in the machinery of citizenship.

He competed in the US series So You Think You Can Dance after going along to the auditions to help out his then dance partner Anya Garnis. The producers were so impressed they took him on the show where he became a firm favourite. Following his success he toured the world in the legendary dance show Burn The Floor before he was offered a place on BBC1 Strictly Come Dancing and moved to the UK in 2011 to join the professional team. Since then he has competed in eight series, winning in 2014 with TV Presenter Caroline Flack. He still holds the accolade of having more number 10s than any other pro-dancer! He has directed, choreographed and produced his own UK tours for 7 years, toured with The Strictly Live Tour and last year The Professionals Tour which paid a tribute to him as he announced he was standing down from the BBC series. He has also appeared on The Greatest Dancer, released his autobiography and appeared twice on Channel 4 Countdown alongside his wife, Rachel Riley. He can also be seen on The Strictly Cruises. In 2021, Pasha is due to join the West End Cast of Here Come The Boys at the Garrick Theatre.
