Repeating and Repeating: Fighting Routine in Marina Carr's Woman and Scarecrow

Description

Delivered as part of the Artists as Young Women in Irish Theatre History series, this lecture was designed to appeal to anyone who had ever stood in front of a sliced pan wondering how they became a slave to filling a school lunchbox, faced a grubby pile of school uniforms consumed with anxiety as to how they were going to launder it before Monday, or gazed at their reflection wishing themselves thinner, younger or more splendid. Considering the light, shade and vivid imagery of Carr’s dramaturgy in Woman and Scarecrow Dr Kealy reflected on how Carr explores intergenerational repetition and the torment of Tesco, timetables and tedium.
