These seventy-four scenes are compiled from plays by minority playwrights, each designed to teach students about cultural diversity. Instead of isolated cuttings from a large number of plays, multiple scenes from single plays, or whole plays themselves, are included, allowing for a more comprehensive view of the playwright’s style and message. Scenes and monologues range from less than two minutes to ten or more minutes, and each is preceded by background information and discussion/analysis to help develop characterizations.
This fine collection includes scenes from two different plays from Native-American theatre, two from Hispanic theatre, two complete plays by Georgia Douglas Johnson as an example of African-American theatre, one play by Israel Horovitz from Jewish-American Theatre, and two plays from Asian-American theatre. Each play, playwright, and minority category are examined from a historical and cultural perspective.
