초록

The concept of the spectral in Caryl Churchill’s The Skriker is extensively related to both the Skriker as a theatrical device and the two teen single mothers as marginalized women in the present. The Skriker is a supernatural ghost that represents both the victim as female history excluded from male-dominated history, and the abuser as a dark force revenging the two teen single mothers who are considered contemporary ghosts. The spectral abilities of the Skriker to transform, use fraudulent magic, and control time and space plays a very important role to reveal the poor material conditions and invisibly exploited labour of marginalized women. In addition, The Skriker challenges the sanctified maternity that oppresses women through the images of mothers who kill their own babies in folk tales and in the present. The Skriker shows the politics and aesthetics of Caryl Churchill’s feminist theatre beyond the constraints of male-dominated theatre by developing a new way to represent marginalized women through the Skriker as the spectral theatrical device.
