Cornell University Professor Sara Warner presents a talk considering theatrics of popular sovereignty in the wake of the 2016 presidential election. The theater functions as an inherently politicized space of representation and social belonging. Actors and audiences alike engage in "patriot acts," performances of civic engagement and civil disobedience. Reception to follow. This event is part of the fall 2017 Comparative Literature Colloquium Series.
