  • FALL 2009 87 Fugue, Hip Hop and Soap Opera
    FALL 2009 87 Fugue, Hip Hop and Soap Opera: Transcultural Connections and Theatrical Experimentation in Twenty-First Century US Latina Playwriting Anne García-Romero A tension can exist between theatrical experimentation and commercial viability. If a playwright writes a play which challenges traditional notions of structure, character and language, will her play get produced? If her play solely adheres to hegemonic, dramaturgical norms, is it more likely to get produced? Early twenty-first century Latina playwrights are writing plays with fractured narratives, multi-cultural characters and linguistic hybridities. In this essay, through examining Elliot, A Soldier’s Fugue by Quiara Alegría Hudes, Tropic of X by Caridad Svich and Fuente by Cusi Cram, I propose that these playwrights’ theatrical experimentations, created by exploring and subverting diverse artistic models, reflect the dynamics of transculturation and that the resulting plays are not only commercially viable but vital to twenty-first century US theater. Hudes, a Yale-trained composer, utilizes compositional fugue structure in her play, Elliot, A Soldier’s Fugue as she delves into the life of a Puerto Rican veteran from Philadelphia confronting a second tour of duty in Iraq. A fugue consists of a composition for multiple voices or instruments in which “a subject is stated unaccompanied in a single voice (or instrument). Then a second voice enters with the answer…The original voice continues with the counterpoint against the answer. After this a third voice enters in turn with the subject again while the first two voices continue with counterpoint against it. Finally, a fourth voice enters, now with the answer, while all three of the other voices accompany it with counterpoint” (Verrall ix).

  • American Television, Drama by Nathan G
    American Television, Drama by Nathan G. Tipton Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Despite a steady increase in the number of "big screen" queer characters and queerly-themed movies, the overt presence of gays and lesbians on the American small screen has been (and continues to be) far more limited. As Suzanna Danuta Walters has explained, while film has long dealt with gay subjects (albeit in often stereotyped or "tragic" ways), television's explicitly family-centric format appeared to mandate that glbtq persons were simply not a part of families that made up "typical" family audiences. After all, Walters continues, the intense intimacy and centrality of television in the personal space of family life provides a particular type of viewing experience that is fundamentally distinct from the relative anonymity of movie theaters. Not surprisingly, this family-centrism is displayed most prominently in programs shown by the five broadcast television networks, ABC, CBS, NBC, The CW, and Fox. These networks have historically been reticent about tackling homosexuality in its multifarious forms, preferring instead to leave these programming decisions to the proliferating number of cable networks. Still, long before the advent of cable, broadcast networks were tentatively exploring homosexuality by vicariously inserting into dramatic television series stereotypically gay characters. Â Early Representations From 1968 to 1974, as Edward Alwood has explained, homosexuals on television were recognizable in programs such as Kojak, M*A*S*H, Police Woman, and Hawaii Five-O because of their routine representation as limp-wristed, effeminate drag queens who walked with a swish and talked in high-pitched voices.
