Gender, Sex, and Sexuality in Musical Theatre: He/She/They Could Have Danced All N... - AD-TEAM - 09-16-2024 epub | 11.81 MB | English| Isbn:9781789386219 | Author: Kelly Kessler (Editor) | Year: 2023 Description: Quote:Critics and fans alike often mistake theatrical song and dance as evoking a sweeping sense of simplicity, heteronormativity, and traditionalism. Nothing drove home this cultural misunderstanding for Kelly Kessler as when a relative insisted she watch the Clint Eastwood-Lee Marvin cinematic transfer of Paddy Chayefsky's Paint Your Wagon (1969) with a young niece and nephew because it was a 'sweet movie.' In the relative's memory, good old-fashioned singing and dancing-matched with the power of an assumed hegemonic embrace of social norms-far outweighed the whoremongering, alcoholism, wife-selling, and what appears to be narratively sanctioned polyamory. |
