Scripts by Filipina American Writers
Our newest featured list comes from playwright Amanda L. Andrei, who offers this introduction: "Join me in a celebration of Filipina American playwrights, '[B]ecause we have our own lyrics to drop; because we inherit our mothers’ immodest tales' as poet Barbara Jane Reyes writes in Brown Girl Manifesto: #allpinayeverything. These plays are expressions of Pinay power, poetics, nightmares, and longing: the mythology of our islands mingled with tensions of our diaspora, our sharp tongues that shout for our mothers and for revolution, the sparkling shadows in our laughter and how we talk about death."
