  • On Luis Valdez
    ashley lucas university of north carolina at chapel hill Reinventing the Pachuco The Radical Transformation from the Criminalized to the Heroic in Luis Valdez’s Play Zoot Suit n 12 January 1943, at the highly publicized Sleepy Lagoon mur- der trial, a court wrongly convicted seventeen young men from Othe 38th Street neighborhood for murder and assault associated with the death of a young Mexican American named José Díaz.1 Th e Zoot Suit Riots occurred later that spring when members of the U.S. Navy and Marines attacked Mexican American youths, beat them, and stripped them naked in the streets of Los Angeles.2 In 1978, Luis Valdez’s landmark play Zoot Suit opened at the Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles and in doing so became the first professionally produced Chicana/o play.3 All three events reflect the performance of terror in Mexican American communities and the processes of racial othering that create that terror. In his book Stages of Terror: Terrorism, Ideology, and Coercion as Th eatre History, Anthony Kubiak describes the fundamental links between the performance of terror in life to the performance of terror in theater and the media.4 He sees acts of terror as necessarily taking place in view of a specific audience, those being terrorized. Acts committed with the intention of inspiring terror in others possess a theatrical or performative quality; they put on a show to elicit the specific emotional response of terror. This article examines the ways in which the play Zoot Suit reshapes performances of terror from the Journal for the Study of Radicalism, Vol.

  • Migration, Mobilization, and the Cultural Work of El Teatro Campesino
    On Strike and On Stage: Migration, Mobilization, and the Cultural Work of El Teatro Campesino Elizabeth Rodriguez Fielder University of Mississippi Abstract: This essay looks at the role of labor activism through the cultural work of El Teatro Campesino, the theater company that emerged from the farmworkers’ strike led by Cesear Chavez in Delano, California, during the mid-1960s. Through make- shift performances along the picket line, the farmworkers and their creative visionary, Luis Valdez, innovated Chicano/a performance and created an activist aesthetic that has continued to influence Chicano/a performance and art. Their productions, which started as small improvisational actos, drew from a wealth of transnational influences as well as from a larger proletariat and activist theater tradition. However, El Teatro Campesino adapted these techniques to their local resources. The result created a unique forum that enabled promotional education about unions and workers’ rights to exist side-by-side with themes of self-reflection and criticism concerning the risks of identity politics. The essay explores the methods by which El Teatro Campesino ques- tioned and critiqued ethnic identity and argues for a more complex approach to their earlier picket-line entertainment. It proceeds to consider the importance of cultural production for labor mobilization, and argues for a more integrated analysis of the relationship between activism and art. Keywords: Chicano/a studies, performance, labor studies, transnationalism, Global South, multi-culturalism,

STRATEGIES OF NARRATIVE DISCLOSURE IN THE RHETORIC OF ANTI-CORPORATE CAMPAIGNS by RICHARD ALEXANDER HERDER Under the Direction of Dr. Michael Bruner ABSTRACT In the years following World War II social activists learned to refine rhetorical techniques for gaining the attention of the new global mass media and developed anti-corporate campaigns to convince some of the world’s largest companies to concede to their demands. Despite these developments, rhetorical critics have tended to overlook anti-corporate campaigns as objects of study in their own right. One can account for the remarkable success of anti-corporate campaigns by understanding how activists have practiced prospective narrative disclosure, a calculated rhetorical wager that, through the public circulation of stories and texts disclosing problematic practices and answerable decision makers, activists can influence the policies and practices of prominent corporations. In support of this thesis, I provide case studies of two anti-corporate campaigns: the Amalgamated Clothing and Textile Workers Union vs.

  • Somewhere Between Brecht & Cantinflas the Origin and Evolution of El Teatro Campesino Thursday, October 16, 2014, 6:30
    NEWS ADVISORY Contact: Jim Yoshioka, 956-9424 or [email protected] October 1, 2014 University of Hawai’i at Mānoa Somewhere Between Brecht & Cantinflas The Origin and Evolution of El Teatro Campesino A Presentation by Luis Valdez Internationally Renowned Playwright, Director, and Filmmaker Luis Valdez is regarded as one of the most important and influential American playwrights living today. His internationally renowned, and Obie award-winning theatre company, El Teatro Campesino (The Farm Workers’ Theater) was founded by Valdez in 1965 in the heat of the United Farm Workers (UFW) struggle and the Great Delano Grape Strike in California’s Central Valley. Creating biting satirical actos (short plays) on the picket lines, the company of striking farm workers quickly learned to use humor as a non-violent weapon. Two years later, El Teatro Campesino would become an independent non-profit cultural center that helped inspire and define the Chicano Movement. Valdez created documentaries and specials on PBS, and went on to write and direct feature films, notably “Zoot Suit” and “La Bamba.” His involvement with Cesar Chavez, the UFW, and the early Chicano Movement left an indelible mark that remains embodied in his impressive span of work. A half century down the road, from picket lines to Broadway, and from university campuses to Hollywood studios, he looks back at the trajectory of his career as an American maestro. Valdez just staged his newest play “Valley of the Heart” at his company’s playhouse in San Juan Bautista, California. About to celebrate El Teatro’s 50th anniversary in 2015, he examines the origins and evolution of his theater, which he originally described as existing “somewhere between Brecht and Cantinflas,” referencing the German playwright and Mexican comedy actor.

  • December, 2004
    UFW DOCUMENTATION PROJECT ONLINE DISCUSSION December 2004 and January 2005 Kathy Lynch Murguia, 12/1/04 RE: Closure Kathy Murguia 1965-1983 As we move to the final days of the Listserve, I am bringing closure to a huge chunk of my life. I don't know about anyone else, but I do reflect back with varied emotions and interpretations of events. It began so simple and it ended up being so complicated. What was public became personal . Thoughts became projected into possibilities and threats. What was personal became public in that it became a test of loyalty. The lines became blurred; boundaries confused. We all participated in this blurring of reality. We hurt each other in our misunderstandings. I had hoped we were headed somewhere...I did believe the farmworkers needed a union. El Movimiento was a beginning. It came as a result of what Cesar called "viva swells". It was the structure that became problematic, and its tolerance for criticism and its ability to resolve internal conflict that became lost in a fog of meaning. Doug you are right. As one that was there at the beginning. I would venture to say we lost the willingness to talk to each other. Yes Abby, the Game facilitated this level of honesty. Mary, I do wish we could time travel into the next decade and be renewed. Marshall, in this interregnum will Cesar's and our dreams survive? What lessons have we learned? I would name one. Responsibility rests within. We invest in history and we have the obligation/ duty to defend what we know to be our experience; to find our voice and to speak, trusting our words, directing these words to those who need to hear what we have to say.

  • An Exploration of Los Vendidos
    FOUR ENCOUNTERS: AN EXPLORATION OF LOS VENDIDOS by JESSICA JASZEWSKI A THESIS Presented to the Departments of Theatre Arts and Linguistics and the Robert D. Clark Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts MAY 2021 An Abstract of the Thesis of Jessica Jaszewski for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Department of Theatre Arts and Linguistics to be taken JUNE 2021 Title: Four Encounters: An Exploration of Los Vendidos Approved: Tricia Rodley, Ph.D. Primary Thesis Advisor This thesis explores how I have encountered Luis Valdez’s 1967 play Los Vendidos as a researcher and allied theatre-maker. I have explored Los Vendidos, how it came to be, how it fits within Chicanx and Latinx theatre, and how I can engage with this work and potentially with other pieces of Latinx theatre. This case study of Luis Valdez’s Los Vendidos initially bore the ultimate goal of producing a framework that describes the best practices for producing this piece, but I ended up building a framework that features tenets of allied theatrical scholarship instead of production as the best form for my current engagement and support. The framework foregrounds respect: for the playwright’s message, for actors and their cultural identity, and to encourage more Latinx language and culture on American stages. Focused allyship is a way in which I can use research to expand my awareness of culture and create a space of inclusion in theatre, especially when encountering plays that utilize negative racial stereotypes as a device to subvert racist ideologies.
