Through a performance piece, an ethnographic drama, the article explores what might be called academic category boundary work, around the use of nonmainstream forms of data (autoethnography)-or this is at least one possible reading of the drama. In general, the ethnographic drama is an interesting form of postfoundational scholarship in that it is both (or neither) data and analysis; it troubles the desires for transparency and real-reality that come with the usual manner of presenting the data and analysis as separate and separable. In its data+analysis simultaneity the ethnographic drama insists on being 'creata,' and on offering significant insight into various cultural practices, yet by explicitly and unapologetically drawing on a literary genre, it also never lets the reader/audience forget their part and responsibility as reader/audience. As a funny twist, due to this specific ethnographic drama's subject matter and its likely audience, any thoughts, sensations, conversations, or emotions invoked by performing/reading it will constitute a new round of data+analysis and form the beginnings of yet-to-be-written fourth acts
