Art in a Democracy: Selected Plays of Roadside Theater, Volume 2: The Intercultural Plays, 19902020

English

Collaborative plays with diverse ensembles across the country address pressing issues of our times
The plays in Volume 2 come from Roadsides intercultural and issue-specific theater work, including long-term collaborations with the African American Junebug Productions in New Orleans and the Puerto Rican Pregones Theater in the South Bronx, as well as with residents on both sides of the walls of recently-built prisons. Roadside has spent 45 years searching for what art in a democracy might look like. The anthology raises questions such as, What are common principles and common barriers to achieving democracy across disciplines, and how can the disciplines unite in common democratic cause?
