| Résumé : | In Marina Carr's Portia Coughlan (1996) ghostly performances stage the unsettling effects of the past as it resurfaces in the present; of both individual memory and the cultural memory of female experience. Through application of Joseph Roach's concepts of surrogation, genealogies of performance and environments of memory, as well as Homi K.
