| Abstract
|
:
|
The events of September 11, 2001 compelled playwrights of Arab or Arab American background to adjust their narratives and to include discourses which interpreted as well as challenged misconceptions surrounding their own culture. Political incidents such as 9/11 produced a shared response from Arab American playwrights wherein women playwrights recognized a need and a responsibility to adequately represent their own personal stories, bodies, and histories through performance. I address the visibility, responsibilities, and historical contributions of Arab American women playwrights and performers post-2001.
