ABSTRACT
Studies in posthumanism and new materialism offer methodological expansion for autoethnography and performance studies. Posthuman perspectives conceptualize texts, stage, others, sounds, props, self, as well as cultural discourses, narratives, and norms that exist within and beyond the page and stage as matter with agencies constructed in their shifting entanglements creative and created by an agentic assemblage. In a posthuman performative autoethnography, body, voice, and text are equally agentic with things human and nonhuman allowing further spaces for articulating stories of lives.
