Description

Performing Shame shows how simulations of shame by North American writers and artists have the power to resist its withering influence. Chapter One analyzes the projects' key terms: shame, performance, and empathy. Chapter Two probes the book's key terms in light of a real-world study of an empathy device that aims to teach the public what it feels like to be disabled. Chapter Three analyzes how theatre intervenes in the practice of medicine via standardized patient actors who engage in role play to enhance medical students' empathy for patients coping with shame. Chapter Four moves from the clinic to the street to examine how The Raging Grannies' public performances contest ageist constructions of older women's bodies and desires. Chapter Five shifts further from the bedside to the book by exploring Alison Bechdel's graphic novel Fun Home, which challenges the shame projected onto homosexuals. Bringing the study full circle, the final chapter offers close readings of the stories of Alice Munro; like empathy devices, her texts restage scenes of shame to undo its malevolent spell. This book will be of interest to scholars in theatre and performance studies, health humanities, gender studies, queer studies, literary studies, disability studies, and affect studies.
