The Change of Dramaturgy in Lisa Kron s Autobiographical Therapeutic Theatre

This paper examines how Lisa Kron construct her autobiographical therapeutic theatre through the change of dramaturgy in 2.5 Minute Ride and Well. Kron has tried to overcome the flaw of her previous solo plays involving the risk of an omniscient narrator s self-conceit. As a part of a theatrical exploration, she shifts monotonous storytelling to avant-garde metatheatre which develpos the conflict by second characters. In her self-revelatory performance, the audience become the subject of the performance by being witnesses of her vulnerable revelation. In 2.5 Minute Ride, the audience play the role of indirect witnesses by filtering Kron s testimony. And they become direct witnesses as listners of her self-confessinal monologue in Well. In the end, the dynamic styles of Kron s plays are intended to induce the self-reflection of the audience and the performer, healing their inner world.
