Description

What motivates North American Indigenous theatre? What differentiates this type of theatre, and what informs its culture? To what extent does this reality contend with the Western theatrical expectation of a radicalized "Indian"?

This brief study explores key concepts that shape and motivate North American Indigenous theatre, while providing insight and best practices for understanding and appreciating Indigenous plays.

Explored through four key topics - being and knowing, relationships, time, and aesthetics - and textually supported by the works of playwrights like Yvette Nolan Monique Mojica, and Mary Kathryn Nagle, Theatre and Indigeneity brings Indigenous studies theories and conversations to bear on Indigenous theatre so that readers are better prepared to understand and assess encounters with Indigenous theatre and performance.
