Catalog description

Explores the intersection of masculinity IN performance (theater, dance, performance art, film/TV, internet platforms, etc.), and AS performance. Topics include maleness/masculinity as a social construct, considerations of masculinity in adolescent development and pedagogy, implications of race and class: marginalized masculinities, female masculinity, trans-masculinity, etc. These lenses are then employed to consider how masculinity forms identity and frames representation within various performative platforms.
