Subject: RE: poco plays


How about Ama Ata Aidoo, Anowa, and Dilemma of a
Ghost; perhaps also Ngigi's early play The black
hermit - and as an interseting alternative to
neocolonialism and precolonial tradition, how about
Soyinka, Kongi's Harvest as also Death and the King's
Horseman. though these don't contain anything very
interseting about gender issues. Aidoo's and Ngugi's
works do, though. Best of luck, Ipshita.
