Gendering Taboos: 10 Short Plays by African Women

More about the book

Consisting of the ten winners of the AWPN's (African Women Playwright Network) international writing competition, this collection is centered around the theme of 'Tackling Taboo Topics in African Female Writing', originally performed as staged readings at the AWPN Festival hosted by the University of Ghana in 2022. Selected from 75 submissions from nine African countries, these plays speak to contemporary and pressing issues, illuminating lived experiences of African women that are common but seldom discussed." -- Baksida
