  • Madness in the Making: Psychosocial Disability and Theater by Scott
    Madness in the Making: Psychosocial Disability and Theater By Scott Matthew Wallin A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Performance Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Catherine Cole, Chair Professor Shannon Jackson Professor Susan Schweik Spring 2014 Scott Matthew Wallin Madness in the Making: Psychosocial Disability and Theater Copyright 2014 Abstract Madness in the Making: Psychosocial Disability and Theater by Scott Matthew Wallin Doctor of Philosophy in Performance Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Catherine Cole, Chair This dissertation begins at the promising crossroads of performance studies and disability studies. How does theater influence our perceptions and responses to psychosocial disability? While plays and productions often reinforce dominant social views that stigmatize and oppress people who are considered mad or labeled mentally ill, theater attuned to these concerns can also critique such treatment by offering fuller, more complex depictions that encourage us to rethink psychosocial disabilities. This dissertation analyzes North American theatrical productions that engage with madness in atypical ways. Drawing from performance theory, disability theory, and ethnographic inquiry via audience and artist interviews and close readings of live and video- recorded performances, “Madness in the Making” analyzes moments where theater and psychosocial disability work together to disrupt normative practices, initiate productive discussions around psychosocial disability, and reach towards a more inclusive and innovative theater. Contemporary society tends to regard psychosocial disability as mental illness that should be eliminated through treatment or social isolation. But madness is also a valuable resource for theater.
