“Sorry Not Sorry”: Apologizing in the Wake of #MeToo
Résumé
This article explores what it means to apologize for misconduct in the #MeToo era through three examples from the Canadian theatre industry: a private apology (Randolph College for the Performing Arts), a public apology (Citadel Theatre), and an absent apology (Soulpepper Theatre). Understanding a public apology as a performative utterance meant to restore a community’s trust, this article suggests the importance of examining the paratexts generated by and around it that help it achieve its function. From policy revisions, to media interviews, to public forums, these materials and events are crucial in the meaning-making process in which a #MeToo apology is engaged, especially when the theatre community’s access to the apology itself is limited. The article concludes by situating its case studies in relation to issues of misconduct in theatre education and training institutions.
