Angela's Mixtape / The History of Light (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by 53rd State Press, Chicago, IL, 2024
ISBN 10: 1732545294 ISBN 13: 9781732545298
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Trained in classical piano and Marxism and raised on jazz, gospel, pop, hip hop, and Black revolutionary politics, Pulitzer Prize finalist Eisa Davis's plays are marked by her stunning intimacy with the praxis of music alongside radical change. In Angela's Mixtape,time shifts like a mixtape,and like a mixtape, the play is both a memoir and a gift-for us, of course, and for Davis's aunt,activist and scholar Angela Y. Davis, under whose tutelage Davis readsDas Kapital andlearns to drive stick andhack her own way toward inheriting her legacy. In The History of Light, Davis counterpoints the intertwining fates of two couples under racialized pressures a generation apart. Lush with the sound of the grand piano, The History of Light is a study in black and white, love and alienation.Underlying the political clarity and formal virtuosity of Davis's writing are the unexpected crackles of a voice warming up, the crunchiness of missed notes. Because for an artist concerned, like Davis, with how we become who we are and might be, error is a necessary instrument-maybe the sounding weight. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

The Methuen Drama Book of Post-Black Plays
Book 1 of 2: Play AnthologiesLanguage: English

ISBN 10: 1408173824 ISBN 13: 9781408173824
Seller: Rarewaves.com USA, London, LONDO, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. 'Post-black' refers to an emerging trend within black arts to find new and multiple expressions of blackness, unburdened by the social and cultural expectations of blackness of the past and moving beyond the conventional binary of black and white. Reflecting this multiplicity of perspectives, the plays in this collection explode the traditional ways of representing black families on the American stage, and create new means to consider the interplay of race, with questions of class, gender, and sexuality. They engage and critique current definitions of black and African-American identity, as well as previous limitations placed on what constitutes blackness and black theatre.Written by the emerging stars of American theatre such as Eisa Davis and Marcus Gardley, the plays explore themes as varied as family and individuality, alienation and gentrification, and reconciliation and belonging. They demonstrate a wide-range of formal and structural innovations for the American theatre, and reflect the important ways in which contemporary playwrights are expanding the American dramatic canon with new and diverse means of representation. Edited by two leading US scholars in black drama, Harry J. Elam Jr (Stanford) and Douglas A. Jones Jr (Princeton), this cutting edge anthology gathers together some of the most exciting new American plays, selected by a rigorous academic backbone and explored in depth by supporting critical material.
