ABSTRACT In this essay, I outline the circumstances and method that enabled me to produce the following autobiographical solo performance script, A Happily Married Man. I offer insight into: the anxieties that first blocked and then galvanized the stories, the compositional process that brought them to life, the masculinity they address, and the nomadic genres they travel through. Examining the script through these four points of entry is meant to validate the anxieties harbored by other would-be performers while offering a model for working through those concerns.

成为幸福的已婚男人

摘要 在这篇文章中，我概述了使我能够制作以下自传体独奏表演剧本《幸福已婚的男人》的环境和方法。我提供了洞察力：首先阻止然后激发故事的焦虑，使它们栩栩如生的构图过程，它们所表达的男性气质，以及它们所经历的游牧流派。通过这四个切入点检查脚本旨在验证其他潜在表演者所怀有的焦虑，同时提供解决这些问题的模型。
