"A comprehensive analysis, celebration, and critique of the ways in which teenage
girls create and perform activist theater. Girls, particularly Black and Latinx teenagers,
are using the tools of performance to share their stories, devise new ones, and use
the stage to advocate for social change. Interweaving interviews, poetic text, drama,
and theory, this book provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of how and
why this field erupted and the ways in which girls are using performance to transform
themselves and enact change in their communities. As a white woman who has collaboratively
created theater with hundreds of girls of color over the past 20 years, Dana Edell
offers strategies for engaging with girls across difference through an intersectional
lens in order to acknowledge the ways in which race, gender, age, class, ability,
and sexuality influence girls' experiences and relationships with adult collaborators
as they work to create meaningful, impactful, and often personal activist performances.
This is the go-to handbook for teachers, theater directors, and performance makers
who want to create politically engaged work with teenage girls."
