Abstract
This research applies feminist and gender theories, along with theatre acting methods and practices, to propose a non-binary inclusive interpretative approach that explores the role of gender in the work of the actor/performer. Through the contextualization of the term “recycling” in a theatrical context, the aim is to define strategies for deconstructing and reformulating gender narratives, performativity, and bodily behaviors in theatre. To achieve this objective, the focus is on the acting process of the following characters: Clytemnestra (Aeschylus, 2021), Isabella of Valois (Shakespeare, 1997 & 2008), and Sayyidah Zaynab (2024 [Online]). The goal is to define 'Scenic Gender': an alive body with ambiguous appearances and behaviors; a doer-actor-performer agent who rejects patriarchal values and is capable of playing any role, beyond the limits of gender/sex, age, race or ethnicity. This concept of a recycled gender-body, in turn, provokes the recycling of other theatre elements—space, text, time and audience—creating a domino effect in which the deconstruction and/or alteration of one component influences all others.
