Abstract
In addition to the economic advantages of globalization, it also causes some challenges in the field of culture. As a major challenge raised by globalization, homogenization drives aside the heterogeneous local cultures, replacing them with the homogenized global culture. Ireland has also been challenged by such homogenizing global cultural flows and Brian Friel reflects such a challenge and a solution to it in his Faith Healer. For Friel, the form of monologue play is an expression of his glocal solution. Possessing the prominent features of the concept of glocalization such as interpenetration of the local and the global, heterogeneity, transcending the borders, increasing the agency of the local, monologue play provides the glocal condition for the transaction of Irish culture with global culture. Investigating Faith Healer and its performances, the present study exposes the affinities of glocalization and monologue play in Faith Healer.
