If all national identity is performative, the Northern Irish national identity offers a particularly pronounced model of this performative instability. Such precarity was emphasized when the 2016 UK EU ‘Brexit’ referendum raised contentious questions over Northern Irish citizenship. This article explores how two recent Northern Irish performance pieces, David Ireland’s Cyprus Avenue (2016) and Clare Dwyer Hogg’s Hard Border (2018), probe the unsettled plurality of Northern Irish national identity through the casting of actor Stephen Rea in their respective central roles. Rea’s own personal and professional history, as a figure inflected in the public mind with an extreme range of potential ‘Northern Irish identities’, encapsulates the shifting boundaries of an unstable, performative spectrum of ethno-national selfhood. This article explores how the lingering memories of Rea’s on- and offstage past offer a fittingly multilayered, even contradictory, representation of contemporary Northern Irish identity.

英国脱欧后的北爱尔兰表演:斯蒂芬·雷 (Stephen Rea) 在大卫·爱尔兰 (David Ireland) 的塞浦路斯大道 (Cyprus Avenue) 和克莱尔·德怀尔·霍格 (Clare Dwyer Hogg) 的硬边境
如果所有的民族身份都是表演性的,那么北爱尔兰的民族身份就为这种表演性的不稳定性提供了一个特别明显的模型。当 2016 年英国脱欧公投引发有关北爱尔兰公民身份的争议性问题时,这种不稳定性就得到了凸显。本文探讨了最近的两件北爱尔兰表演作品,大卫爱尔兰的塞浦路斯大道 (2016) 和克莱尔·德怀尔·霍格硬边框 (2018),通过演员斯蒂芬·雷(Stephen Rea)扮演各自的核心角色,探讨了北爱尔兰民族身份不稳定的多元化。雷亚自己的个人和职业历史,作为一个在公众心目中具有广泛潜在“北爱尔兰身份”的人物,概括了民族自我身份的不稳定、表演性范围的不断变化的边界。本文探讨了雷亚在舞台上和舞台下的过去的挥之不去的记忆如何为当代北爱尔兰身份提供了一个恰当的多层次、甚至矛盾的代表。
