(Earley, 1989). As a cliché in a team work, there is no “I” in a team. This model of team’s achievement could be clearly seen in entertainment in various shows in Las Vegas. For example, Cirque du Soleil, a show with more than people, has won numerous awards and billion dollars in sales, yet no name of performers was mentioned or credited (Stout, 2012).

but in different ways than the show girls Sheehan was used to. Strippers and hookers still hold that reputation than any man can have a beautiful woman, although they do not wear the flashy clothes the showgirls wear.

portraying the experience of disability. For that matter, representations of people with disabilities are often displayed in contrast to the ‘normal’ bodies in the film. This paper explores representations in the films Freaks (1932), The Elephant Man (1980), and The Theory of Everything (2014) to show how these films depict dis/abilty as reflected in the recurring narrative and representational devices of fear, pity, and admiration, which, in turn, reveal certain assumptions regarding the film’s…
