| Research Abstract |
This study explores one core question : Why only actresses did not black up in the long eighteenth century theatre? To answer this, I examined two sets of ideas : a discourse concerning theatrical convention and aesthetic recognition of blackness ; a powerrelationship in representing women and racial others. This study has shown that racial otherness was manipulated in the long eighteenth century theatre in order to make a profit from the theatre production, and that in that theatre a mixed ideology of racism and commercialism was generated, regenerated and distributed.
