<italic>Choreographing Asian America: Club O' Noodles and Other Mis-Acts </italic> is a study of contemporary Asian American dancetheater and performance art. Working at the disciplinary intersections of Asian American studies, dance history, and ethnography this work examines the socio-political and aesthetic concerns expressed by experimental Asian American performance. The fieldwork conducted for this project took place in Los Angeles, CA with the Vietnamese American performance ensemble Club O' Noodles. A close investigation of Club O' Noodles and their performances reveals the ways in which Asian immigrant history, racialized ethnic identities, gender, and class differences intersect in performances of national identity on and off the proscenium stage. This study frames body-based experimental Asian American performance art as a site of social activism in order to challenge orientalist stereotypes of Asians in the media, and expose the conditions that marginalize Asian American artists within the terrain of American culture. In addition the disciplinary denial of orientalist appropriations within the canon of American dance history is contested. An examination of the relationship between racialized discourses of immigrant history, the conflation of race and nationality, and the disembodiment of the Asian American subject recasts the cultural appropriation of Asian aesthetics as a defining marker for disenfranchising the Asian American cultural citizen.

520 $a This research is presented as a “performative auto/ethnography” that functions as a theoretical and methodological intervention into the practice of reading staged performance as literary texts. It disrupts traditional anthropological practices of studying “non-white” cultural practices as exotic and foreign objects by contextualizing Club O' Noodles and their work within an aesthetic of “community theater.” Asian American performance is marketed as community theater in response to the growing popularity of using experimental performance as a symbol of radical politics and a celebratory social event within Asian American studies and other multicultural contexts. This dissertation identifies how Asian American performance presented as community theater embodies the political and aesthetic contradictions between the rhetoric of inclusionism of 1960s postmodern dance—and its demand for bodily
