Looking at a century of American theatre, McDaniel investigates how
racially-informed notions of motherhood become sites of resistance
to social and political hierarchies. "(Re)Constructing Maternal
Performance in Twentieth-Century Drama" locates a broad tradition
of 'counter maternities', politically resistant performances that
engage essentialist identities. While resituating motherhood as a
role not always tied to biological gender, McDaniel employs a
methodology informed by cultural, gender, and theatre studies and
considers how the construction of mothering as universally women's
work obscures additional, marginalizing identities based in race
and class.
