Girls, Performance, and Activism offers artists, activists,
educators, and scholars a comprehensive analysis, celebration, and
critique of the ways in which teenage girls create and perform
activist theater. Girls, particularly Black and Latinx teenagers,
are using the tools of performance to share their stories, devise
new ones, and use the stage to advocate for social change.
Interweaving interviews, poetic text, drama, and theory, this book
provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of how and why
this field erupted and the ways in which girls are using
performance to transform themselves and enact change in their
communities. As a white woman who has collaboratively created
theater with hundreds of girls of color over the past 20 years,
Dana Edell offers strategies for engaging with girls across
difference through an intersectional lens in order to acknowledge
the ways in which race, gender, age, class, ability, and sexuality
influence girls' experiences and relationships with adult
collaborators as they work to create meaningful, impactful, and
often personal activist performances. This is the go-to handbook
for teachers, theater directors, and performance makers who want to
create politically engaged work with teenage girls.
