Thesis (Ph.D.)--St. John's University (New York), 2017.

This dissertation argues for the actor's work of performance as a distinctive form of critical knowledge. It examines the way in which the actor's body is presented in William Shakespeare's Richard II, Henry V, and Hamlet, and draws in critical perspectives from New Historicism, Feminist Theory, and practical acting techniques (ranging from 16th century oratory, 19th century elocution, to 20th and 21st century methods) in order to make the argument that acting as a critical mode emphasizes theatrical performance as a lived, embodied experience. This dissertation offers the perspective of the author as an Actor-Critic theorizing her own performances in roles such as Richard II and Hamlet, which in addition to exemplifying the actor's critical work also provides a platform to examine cross-gendered performance and the ways in which gender is embodied on the platform stage today.
