This paper investigates the Tainaner Ensemble’s 2015 production Belle Reprieve, in order to focus on the Taiwanese queerness that is fashioned through its series of theatrical and rhetoric artifices. By weaving together gender issues, postcolonial discourses, and corporeal debates, this paper proposes a critical model of dreg aesthetics that highlights the tactical resistance of local queer subjects. The first section employs Antonio Chao, Kristeva, Freud, Lacan and Silverman to explore the gender play of the characterization. The second section combines Derrida’s notion of Différance with Spivak’s subaltern discourse and Bhabha’s concept of hybridity, underscoring indigenous staging and presention. The last section focuses on the naked performance of the final scene via the lens of Foster and Martin’s arguments regarding body protest in order to tease out the rebellious agency of the performing subjects. |
