Shards as Autoethnographic Performance delves into the intricate process of developing, creating, and presenting performed autoethnography. The author opens up about the driving force behind the creation of these works and shares his unique approach to writing and rehearsing them. This captivating book takes the form of an autoethnography about writing and performing an autoethnography, functioning as a play within a play. Through extensive discussions, the author unveils how contemporary political events, social issues, and even events in his ancestors' history have shaped his writing, research, and ultimately, his performance.
The author takes us on an autoethnographic journey that spans from early 20th-century immigration from Eastern Europe to the United States, his personal growth as a singer and actor, the insatiable desire to perform, his education as a cantor in a synagogue, and the challenges he faces in navigating these personal and artistic conflicts. Throughout the book, Evan shares deeply personal stories with the reader, showcasing his honesty, sincerity, and candor.
In addition to providing valuable insights into performing during the COVID-19 pandemic, the book also sheds light on how performing artists, including the author, have adapted to online performing venues. This book serves as a valuable companion for courses in qualitative research, autoethnography, and performance studies, as well as for individuals seeking guidance on writing, rehearsing, and delivering solo theatre performances.
