Resources On Performed Ethnography

Performed ethnography, which is also known as performance ethnography and ethnodrama, involves turning ethnographic research findings into play scripts that are read aloud by a group of participants or performed for audiences.   Many of the scripts featured on this website, for example, Harriet's House and Ana's Shadow, are performed ethnographies.

As an educational researcher who has been trained as a critical ethnographer within anthropological traditions, Gailey Road's Artistic Director Tara Goldstein locates her performed ethnography work within the literary turn of American anthropology that occurred in the mid-1980s-early 1990s.  

Readers and spectators of Tara's performed ethnographies have included school administrators, teachers (both pre-service and in-service), undergraduate students, graduate students, community educators and the general public.
