Acting has traditionally been considered a form of pretending or
falsehood, compared with the so-called reality or truth of everyday
life. Yet in the postmodern era, a reversal has occurred - real
life is revealed as something acted and acting is where people have
begun to search for truth. In Acting and its Refusal in Theatre and
Film, Marian McCurdy considers the ethical desire of refusing to
act - which results from blurred boundaries of acting and living -
and examines how real life and performance are intertwined.
Offering a number of in-depth case studies, the book contextualizes
refusals of acting on stage and screen and engages in an analysis
of fascist theatricality, sexual theatricality and the refusal of
theatricality altogether.
