Beschreibung

A unique anthology bringing together stories of queer life from international playwrights, these seven plays showcase the dazzling multiplicity of queer narratives across the globe: the absurd, the challenging, and the joyful.

From the legacy of colonialism in India to the farcical bureaucracy of marriage law in Kosovo; from a school counsellor in Taiwan coming out as HIV+, to coming of age in an Israel-Palestine coexistence camp, this is a genre-spanning collection of global writing.

Taste of Love by Zhan Jie, translated by Jeremy Tiang (Taiwan)
Peace Camp Org by Mariam Bazeed (Egypt)

Über den Autor

Danish Sheikh worked as a human rights lawyer for six years before transferring to the Jindal Global Law School, Sonipat, as Assistant Professor. He teaches courses on the intersections of gender, sexuality, literature and theatre. His first book, Invisible Libraries, was shortlisted for the Jan Michalski Award, 2017. In 2015, he began the Bardolators, a group that performs contemporary versions of Shakespeare plays in public spaces in India. Contempt, his first original script, was longlisted for the Hindu Playwright Award in 2017.

Zusammenfassung

These plays are timely reminders of not only the challenges still faced by queer people around the world, but also the universal nature of love
