Theatre of the Borderlands: Conflict, Violence, and Healing is an
enlightening and encompassing study that focuses on how dramatists
from the Northern Mexico border territories write about theater.
The plays analyzed in this study are representative of the most
important Northern Border playwrights whose plays' themes present
the US-Mexico Borderlands in a socio-historical and political
context. The most important themes observed include topics that
engage in discussions of: the indigenous, Border crossings, heroes
and folk saints, the city of Tijuana, and violence in the
Borderlands, to name a few. These themes have led to the birth of
the Teatro del Norte movement, a group of determined playwrights
insistent on presenting dramaturgical themes that show the bond
between their particular geographies, histories, socio-political
and economic situations, thereby giving birth to an original voice
and new aesthetic of representation. Dealing with the topics
already mentioned, and pairing them with more timely ones like
immigration reform, namely, this study can serve as an invaluable
resource to many interdisciplinary academic settings, and can grant
an eye-opening insight to Border relations through several critical
readings.
