▼ Tim Miller is known primarily as a solo performance artist and political activist. What is less known and understood is his teaching career, which has paralleled his performance career. Miller has facilitated performance creation workshops in hundreds of universities and community centers around the globe. Along with thousands of other participants, I have found them to be rich and profound experiences on scholarly, aesthetic and emotional levels. I argue that his educational work has had, and continues to have, a profound impact on individuals within the fields of theatre and performance studies and beyond. Miller’s history as a solo performer and activist, his own statements about his pedagogy, and my observations as a workshop participant suggest a series of guiding questions for this study. What techniques does Miller employ to engage with and empower the voices and embodied experiences of the individuals that participate in his workshops? How do the methods of these workshops relate to Miller’s work as a solo performer and as an activist with ACT UP? At its most basic level, this study documents Miller’s teaching work in a variety of higher education workshop and performance contexts, investigates the structure and methodology of Miller’s workshop techniques, and identifies what characteristics the workshops share and how they differ, based on the contexts in which they occur. I conducted thirty-seven oral history interviews with workshop participants in four residencies and case studies, the organizing faculty members, and Miller himself as the primary source material for this study. As an analytical frame, I identified six categories of inquiry: the body as memoir of personal and family history; the performance of self as an act of claiming individual identity; the immediacy of the personal narratives generated; the minimal performance style most suited to it; the relationship between these workshops and the goals and curricula of the universities and colleges where Miller most frequently teaches; and the importance of Miller’s generosity as facilitator and his faith in the capacity for each group he works with to tell powerful, beautiful, and necessary stories of their own lives. Advisors/Committee Members: Bud Coleman, Melinda Barlow, Amanda Giguere, Oliver Gerland, Amma G.. Kootin.

▼ This thesis is an investigation into modern circus from its beginnings in 1768 through to present day contemporary circus arts. Eight diverse bodies in modern and contemporary circus are explored. These eight bodies act as different lenses to focus enquiry into gaps or ruptures in the grand narratives of circus, to reveal previously missing voices and histories and to set in place new approaches to perceiving circus phenomena. In The Political Body, the phenomenon of embodied protest is identified and explored in relation to contemporary circus works. The importance of the engaged spectator is identified in determining political, poetic and metaphorical meanings in contemporary circus acts, even when those meanings go beyond what the artist may have originally intended. This active act of deciphering by the spectator can add to the perception of depth and complexity in some contemporary circus arts, which is especially relevant in works that can be read as a hybrid of performance art and circus. In The Body of Space, the importance of space as a central and defining element in the development of circus is highlighted. Circus is pinpointed as a forerunner in the development of innovative performance spaces and in the resultant emergence of new and influential performance aesthetics. In the section The Body of Zooësis the representations of two different animals in circus are traced. In the first chapter in this section The Body of the Horse - the horse is identified as being of pivotal importance to the development of modern circus. The horse’s history and its representation in circus are traced through from the beginnings of modern circus to the contemporary horse circuses now emerging in Quebec. In The Wild Body, the history of the representation of wild cats in circus is investigated in relation to a rising tide of popular support for the rights of animals. Circus’ responses to these shifts in public opinion are revealed in the emergence of new acts created to appease public concern, and in the emergence of new rhetoric designed to portray circuses as ‘cross-species families’ or ‘conservation arks.’ In The Extraordinary Body, after an initial exploration of the history of the exhibition of freaks in circus, the lack of differently abled performers in contemporary circus is interrogated. The phenomenon of ‘crip-face’ or ‘crip-drag’ in which the mannerisms of the disabled are adopted by able-bodied performers is investigated in contemporary circus performance and newly emerging circuses in England and Australia combining both disabled and able-bodied performers are identified. In The Exceptional Body the gradually reducing parameters for the performing body in contemporary circus are identified and interrogated. In The Unmarked Body, a gap in the grand narrative of circus is identified and the history of African American circus in North America is developed. This history is traced from the beginnings of modern circus in North America through to the present day. In The Resilient Body the origins of social circus are…

▼ Imagine: William Shakespeare’s final hero, Prospero and all of his beautiful and majestic White, Italian maleness played by an Afro-Haitian American actress. Something changes. No longer does the audience see a traditional view of the character onstage. The audience sees a woman of African descent delivering lines written for a man of European descent. They may or may not question what they are seeing: certainly, I the actor, must. My Blackness brings an ancestral line to the production that makes a variety of traditional African religions part of Prospera’s spiritual lineage. My Blackness and gender also imbue Prospera with a cultural and ancestral world view that presents dynamic possibilities for interpretation of the character. These opportunities for diversity shaped the magic, redemption of and the spiritual practices of the Prospera I performed. My spiritual practices have influenced and been influenced by my journey as a theatre artist. The magic of theatre, the craft of acting and the pursuit of its mastery has broadened my knowledge and understanding of my spiritual lineage. This thesis will examine the ideas presented in the previous statement in the framework of theatre as a spiritual practice and its potential as a healing art. In Chapters 1 and 2 of this thesis I will chronicle my discovery of and development in this medium before I entered the MFA in Theatre Performance and Graduate Certificate in African American Theatre programs at the University of Louisville. In Chapter 3 I will chronicle how my classroom experiences aided in my spiritual and artistic growth. In Chapter 4 I will explore how the practice of Tai Chi and Qi Gong influenced my artistic and spiritual development. In Chapter 5, I will discuss my spiritual and artistic experiences of selected rehearsal and production processes I participated in while a student in the program. In Chapter 6, I will explore the spiritual lineage and practice I imagined for Prospera with emphasis on the questions I have raised in the introductory statement. In Chapter 7, I will discuss the preparation, rehearsal and performance processes of my thesis role as Prospera in The Tempest. Finally, in Chapter 8, I will present my conclusions regarding the questions stated in the above introduction. Advisors/Committee Members: Burton, Nefertiti.

On one August afternoon in 1916, the USS Memphis capsized off the coast of the Dominican Republic after being caught in a massive tsunami. Howard Weaver, just seventeen, was nearly lost to the unforgiving ocean before being saved by a native fisherman. Decades later, Weaver would leave his sons, Frank and Nathan, with a single remnant of this unknown hero's legacy: a faded postcard bearing his likeness. Now, in 2011, Frank and Nathan – with the help of Frank's son, Travis – conduct their own investigation to solve the mystery. Their search yields shocking realizations about American occupation, military atrocities, and the unfortunate willingness of an entire nation to seemingly overlook one of the bleaker eras in its history (including the part it played in inciting dictator Rafael Trujillo's rise to power). But will it lead them to the truth? Will all stay committed to the course? Or, will they falter after learning that their country was capable of an injustice that persisted twice as long as the First World War? The narrative fluctuates between WWI and the contemporary to offer a striking contrast between history as it's been recorded and how it actually unfolded. What exactly is 'history,' though? This is the central question my work addresses. History is not necessarily what's happened; it is, also, what is said to have happened. It's an authored depiction of time, place & people. Consequently, storytelling is perhaps the most enduring means of passing down, and honoring, our pasts. I do not offer an exact rendition of August 29th, 1916 or the events that followed. The Man On the Postcard is, rather, an imaginative response that attempts to 'fill in the blanks' left by historians and to give resonance to the actions of a forgotten hero.

▼ Higher Education in the U.S. today is experiencing a theoretical and practical shift toward educating the "whole person" and to that end, is investigating ways to include spirituality in all facets of the academy. This requires focusing on the concept that "in addition to material knowledge, spiritual, emotional, and ethical knowledge is imparted to students" (Khan 2009). Many colleges and universities are searching for avenues to answer this call and better prepare students as business, political and social leaders in a new millennia that defines religion very differently than it did twenty years ago. Today, students are exposed to a much wider array of organized religions from all over the globe. Additionally, the very definitions of religion and spirituality have undergone a seismic shift making it difficult for colleges to incorporate a religious or spiritual focus into curriculum. More and more people are cobbling together their own unique combinations of religious ideas, practices, experiences and core values from a variety of religious and non-religious sources. The term 'spirituality' is sometimes used to describe this new do-it-yourself faith...To be 'spiritual' understood in this sense, is to have deeply held convictions, and anyone can have those kinds of heartfelt allegiances. This new ambiguity about what counts as religion or spirituality makes it virtually impossible to keep religion out of higher education. (Jacobsen and Jacobsen 2012) Research on the subject of religion and spirituality indicates that this is a point of major concern for many young American college students who are searching for personal and social significance. (Arnett 2000a; Astin, et al. 2011; Jacobsen and Jacobsen 2012) This study asserts that college students enter a unique stage of development known as emerging adulthood (Arnett 2000a) that calls for increased focus on meaning making and identity formation. In an effort to meet the individual and institutional need for spiritual exploration, this study will offer specific applied theatre practices that connect theories in theatre, psychology, student development and leadership designed to serve the emerging adult population as part of a holistic educational vision. This study confirms the feasibility of such a program by a detailed examination of specific theatre techniques and, in particular, the adaptation of Playback Theatre as the most viable form for inner life exploration and campus community building. A formal investigation into the efficacy of theatrical methods is called for as validation of theories and practices offered here. It is my hope that this research will encourage campus-wide awareness of theatre's utility and application to a wider range of students. By recognizing the need to educate the "whole person", institutions of Higher Education can give students the best possible preparation for a full and meaningful adult life through theatre practices uniquely designed for the purpose of inner life exploration and awareness.

▼ An experience, early in my life, at the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center opened my eyes to the transformative power of Theatre - it would shape my ambitions for performance, inform the choices I made about my acting career, and impel my passions. That single moment had a profound and lasting effect on my soul, one that would ultimately point me to the purpose of "me;" but what exactly was it? What transaction occurred between the performers on stage, and myself, and others in attendance that evening? My life as an actor has been an incredible journey of growth. Over forty-six U.S. states, and abroad, I have performed in Broadway musicals, stage plays, concerts, recordings, cabarets, as part of political campaigns and sporting events, and in universities, schools, and churches. Acting has fundamentally changed the way I see people, and challenges the way I learn, express and see myself. As my imagination, creativity, and craft has grown, I remain profoundly impacted by my experience in Tampa, and I have often wondered exactly what happened that evening? Did it have anything to do with the synesthetic elements of the performance – the lights, sounds, or scenery? Was it specifically the music, the voices, the amazing singers? Perhaps it was the daring acting and story. Did it depend on particular foreknowledge or familiarity of skill, or craft? Was it something that happened by chance, or by design? Was it because of me? Or did it, somehow, override everything I was at the time? Was it something intangible that is present at some, or all, theatrical events that enlivened the experience? This paper seeks to provide answers to some of these questions. My process in seeking answers will be to chronicle my own life experience as a person/artist. Having begun a script a couple of years ago, I decided to return to solo performance as a means to help me determine what made the experience I related so memorable. The attempt is to write and perform a solo performance piece that chronicles the foundation of this incredible journey of growth, while shedding light on the initial Tampa experience. My intention is to gain an understanding about something I believe contributes to "theatrical spirituality." I believe that the unique blending of the script and the interpretation of these words through acting can impart life. The combined force of the power of story and the spoken word can cause something tangible, something good, meaningful and of intrinsic worth to happen in an individual or audience as a result of a performance. It is my belief that the formation, articulation and expression of that understanding represents, in part, my acting philosophy – what I do and why I do it. In a broader and more important sense, however, it also represents my understanding of who I am and why I am. Advisors/Committee Members: Boyd, Belinda.

▼ Collaborative writing has produced some of the world’s most important work for the stage, especially in the field of multidisciplinary theatre, which includes musical theatre, operetta, spectacle theatre, circus, ballet, and any other form of theatre employing multiple modes of performance (i.e. music, dance, acting, mime, etc.). Without collaborative writing teams, we would retain little of the multidisciplinary theatrical repertoire that has been produced in the past 120 years. I argue that although the solo creative genius holds a position of great esteem in Western culture, creative collaboration has long been a more reliable, if less romantic, approach to the complex art of writing for the stage. In this thesis, I will look at successful collaborative writing for commercial musical theatre, in order to uncover effective collaborative methodologies and techniques. I will demonstrate that there are many effective approaches to collaborative writing for the stage, but these approaches have important commonalities. Most important among these commonalities, successful commercial collaboration is consistently marked by an overriding commitment to a unity of concept that guides the work of all the collaborators involved. I will base my findings on two contrasting case studies: Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Oklahoma!, and Disney Theatrical’s stage version of The Lion King, directed by Julie Taymor. Both productions were among the most commercially successful Broadway musicals of their times, and both were produced through collaborative processes, but they differed in very significant ways. The two shows were created with a different scope and scale from one another, and they each employed extremely different internal hierarchies. The differences in their development make them excellent case studies for a comparison of collaborative methodology. This study provides a framework for effective collaborative writing for commercial theatre. It helps to distinguish the most effective processes for collaborative, commercial theatrical writing, providing useful insights for practical application. Furthermore, it suggests concrete and specific processes that can be used by collaborators who are writing for the commercial stage. In musical theatre, a field in which collaboration is not only desirable, but often necessitated by circumstances, insights into creative collaborative processes are valuable, and worth the attention of a study such as this one.
