Salutin: The intoxicating madness of power
In a stunning version of that amazing play. It was also deeply relevant to us politically. Much of that has to do with casting an actress as a king.It’s not a performance in drag, though promotional photos of McKenna looking glam and ambisexual might mislead you. She plays an ugly, brutal man, balding and hunchbacked. If you didn’t know he was a she, you might never guess it hadn’t been a man. Yet it’s hard to imagine a man giving so relentless an interpretation of the single-minded, stupefied, male drive for power no matter what deceit and damage are required. They do it because winning is all that matters, and they do it cheerily. A male actor playing that might feel a bit traitorous to his gender, and try to nuance it with some guilt and self-doubt.
Then on Tuesday, I watched U.S. Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney say: “The only thing that’s stopping us is government and we’re gonna say let’s stop government and get going again.” He’s not brilliant but he’s had some real life experience and must know how fatuous that is. No modern economy can operate without a huge government role. Still, it’s what you gotta say to win in his party, so he cheerily did. Women can do it too but it comes easier to men like Romney, who’ve been allowed to get away with embarrassing behaviour all their lives due to a combination of their gender and their privilege.
