I Was Never Alone or Oporniki : An Ethnographic Play on Disability in Russia, Paperback / softback Book

I Was Never Alone or Oporniki : An Ethnographic Play on Disability in Russia Paperback / softback

Part of the Teaching Culture: UTP Ethnographies for the Classroom series

Paperback / softback

Description

I Was Never Alone or Oporniki presents an original ethnographic stage play, based on fieldwork conducted in Russia with adults with disabilities.

The core of the work is the script of the play itself, which is accompanied by a description of the script development process, from the research in the field to rehearsals for public performances.

In a supporting essay, the author argues that both ethnography and theatre can be understood as designs for being together in unusual ways, and that both practices can be deepened by recognizing the vibrant social impact of interdependency animated by vulnerability, as identified by disability theorists and activists.
