RAMIREZ, E: La Voz Latina Contemporary Plays and Performance Pieces by Latinas

"La Voz Latina makes visible and accessible a panoply of performance texts that show the remarkable range and ability of Latina playwrights. It demonstrates the vibrant diversity, transnational influences, and high volume of activity in Latina theatre in both the past and present."--Theatre Journal "A fine representation of the some of the most vital and important Latina playwrights writing and performing today. Publishing many plays for the first time, this significant collection will be of interest to students and scholars of theatre, Latina studies, and American studies."--Jorge Huerta, author of Chicano Drama: Performance, Society, and Myth "Apart from the performance pieces themselves, the artists' comments about the circumstances under which the works were created makes the collection a very valuable tool for documenting Latina cultural production since the 1980s."--Tamara L. Underiner, author of Contemporary Theatre in Mayan Mexico: Death-Defying Acts
