It's All Happening
How Musical Theater Does High School
AvLindsey Mantoan
Inbunden, Engelska, 2026
1 116 kr
Kommande
It's All Happening argues that musicals about high school of the 2010s (Heathers, Bring it On, Jagged Little Pill, The Prom, Mean Girls, Be More Chill, and Dear Evan Hansen) collectively frame the high school experience as a kind of performance-both through narratives that often foreground the performing arts, and also by reveling in the ways adolescents navigate this challenging time by consciously performing versions of the self. By elevating an often-maligned adolescent genre, this book takes seriously the subversive potential of musicals set in high school to challenge oppressive systems, highlighting the ways in which these musicals wed fun with a commitment to social critique. 2010s musicals about high school signal social progress and complex new attitudes regarding teenage identity, responding to changing cultural understandings about adolescence, community, and inclusion. The conflicts of these stories treat high school experiences with care and thoughtfulness, enabling younger audiences to feel seen. Chapters focus on social hierarchies, queer and trans politics, digital technologies, intergenerational collaboration, and affect. In addition to historical and theoretical analyses of 2010s high school musicals, this book also features ethnographic research of high school theatre programs producing these musicals, asking what it means for students to perform characters their own age, going through similar life experiences.

Troubling Traditions takes up a 21st century, field-specific conversation between scholars, educators, and artists from varying generational, geographical, and identity positions that speak to the wide array of debates around dramatic canons.Unlike Literature and other fields in the humanities, Theatre and Performance Studies has not yet fully grappled with the problems of its canon. Troubling Traditions stages that conversation in relation to the canon in the United States. It investigates the possibilities for multiplying canons, methodologies for challenging canon formation, and the role of adaptation and practice in rethinking the field’s relation to established texts. The conversations put forward by this book on the canon interrogate the field’s fundamental values, and ask how to expand the voices, forms, and bodies that constitute this discipline.This is a vital text for anyone considering the role, construction, and impact of canons in the US and beyond.

The long cultural moment that arose in the wake of 9/11 and the conflict in the Middle East has fostered a global wave of surveillance and counterinsurgency. Performance in a Militarized Culture explores the ways in which we experience this new status quo. Addressing the most commonplace of everyday interactions, from mobile phone calls to traffic cameras, this edited collection considers: How militarization appropriates and deploys performance techniques How performing arts practices can confront militarization The long and complex history of militarization How the war on terror has transformed into a values system that prioritizes the military The ways in which performance can be used to secure and maintain power across social strataPerformance in a Militarized Culture draws on performances from North, Central, and South America; Europe; the Middle East; and Asia to chronicle a range of experience: from those who live under a daily threat of terrorism, to others who live with a distant, imagined fear of such danger.

Läs direkt efter köp
The long cultural moment that arose in the wake of 9/11 and the conflict in the Middle East has fostered a global wave of surveillance and counterinsurgency. Performance in a Militarized Culture explores the ways in which we experience this new status quo. Addressing the most commonplace of everyday interactions, from mobile phone calls to traffic cameras, this edited collection considers:

How militarization appropriates and deploys performance techniques

How performing arts practices can confront militarization

The long and complex history of militarization

How the war on terror has transformed into a values system that prioritizes the military

The ways in which performance can be used to secure and maintain power across social strata
Performance in a Militarized Culture draws on performances from North, Central, and South America; Europe; the Middle East; and Asia to chronicle a range of experience: from those who live under a daily threat of terrorism, to others who live with a distant, imagined fear of such danger.

Essays on Power, Gender, Death and Performance in HBO’s Game of Thrones

Game of Thrones has changed the landscape of television during an era hailed as the Golden Age of TV. An adaptation of George R.R. Martin’s epic fantasy A Song of Fire and Ice, the HBO series has taken on a life of its own with original plotlines that advance past those of Martin’s books. The death of protagonist Ned Stark at the end of Season One launched a killing spree in television—major characters now die on popular shows weekly. While many shows kill off characters for pure shock value, death on Game of Thrones produces seismic shifts in power dynamics—and resurrected bodies that continue to fight. This collection of new essays explores how power, death, gender, and performance intertwine in the series.

This book examines performance in the context of the 2003 Iraq War and subsequent conflicts with Daesh, or the so-called Islamic State. Working within a theater and performance studies lens, it analyzes adaptations of Greek tragedy, documentary theater, political performances by the Bush administration, protest performances, satiric news television programs, and post-apocalyptic narratives in popular culture. By considering performance across genre and media, War as Performance offers an interdisciplinary approach to the study of culture, warfare, and militarization, and argues that spectacular and banal aesthetics of contemporary war positions performance as a practice struggling to distance itself from appropriation by the military for violent ends. Contemporary warfare has infiltrated our narratives to such an extent that it holds performance hostage. As lines between the military and performance weaken, this book analyzes how performance responds to and potentially shapes war and conflict in the new century.
