Second Chair: an autoethnodrama

ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY, USA, Johnny.Saldana{at}asu.edu

Second Chair, an autoethnodramatic one-man play, explores the reminiscences by an older adult of his high school band years and his quest to become first chair clarinetist through an epiphanic challenge. The play is a metaphor for the feelings of lesser status experienced by the marginalized individual in a competitive mainstream society. The full play script is included, accompanied with the author's reflections on the development and performance of the piece, and its implications for narrative inquiry.

Key Words: challenging • culture • clarinetist • high school band • narrative inquiry
