"Cross-ethnic traffic" refers to a performance style in which minority subjects embody racial/ethnic signifiers of races and ethnicities other than their own. This particular performance convention contributes a very complex dimension to embodiment as the borders that separate identities and racial/ethnic affiliations become displaced and interwoven. Inter-ethnic embodiment among races and ethnicities creates a dynamic, imbricated sense of identity and opens new dialogue among racialized categories. My focus concerns specifically Asian/American theatre and performance, in which Asian/American performers undertake characteristics of other races/ethnicities, and how this reinscription reads on the racially marked Asian body. More importantly, I investigate what cross-ethnic traffic ultimately entails and what its implications are in constructing and molding identity. This study scrutinizes what occurs when various racial signifiers are transcribed upon Asian/American performers and also how "Asianness" travels from body to body.

520 $a This dissertation deals with a contemporary performance convention and the always timely and ever-present issues of race, ethnicity, and sexuality. I utilize various theoretical approaches ranging from performance theory, postcolonialism, as well as Asian American studies, and apply them to analyze films, theatre, as well as musical performances. In my approach, however, each race and ethnicity is not separate from others and does not stand as its own category. Instead, my study integrates races and ethnicities and investigates what occurs when there is an intermingling of various ethnicities as minoritarian subjects perform characteristics and stereotypes of other minority groups.
