Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In a roving, shimmering conversation that took place in May 2021, scholar, poet, and activist Alexis Pauline Gumbs and playwright, songwriter, performance artist, and educator Daniel Alexander Jones discuss love as a foundational principle of artisticpractice and societal change. Reflecting… onLove Like Light, Daniel Alexander Jones's collection of seven plays and performance texts (published by 53rd State in July 2021),DAJ and APG illuminate the ways in which an attention to care, community, nuance, invitation, perceptual particularities, and embodied conditions canresist the profoundly extractive context in which life is lived and art is made.As they discuss the work of Audre Lorde, Billie Holiday, Beah Richards, Bayard Rustin, and Malcolm X, as well as that of DAJ'sgrandma Daisy Mae and APG's grandmother, aunt, and niece, DAJ and APG propose that love, like light, suffuses everything, and that love, like light, creates a field in which transformation, justice, healing, and radical beauty are not just possible-they are already, now. A companion volume to Love Like Light that features a book-length conversation between Daniel Alexander Jones and poet, scholar, and activist Alexis Pauline Gumbs about Daniel's work.Alexis Pauline Gumbs is a recipient of Yale's Wyndham-Campbell Prize.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In June 2022, Sharon Bridgforth and Daniel Alexander Jones held an intimate and searching conversation about the pragmatics of making art and engaging the communities--living and ancestral--from which their work emerges. The two longtime friends reflect on Bridgforth'sbull-jean & dem/dey ba…ck, a collection of two performance/novels written twenty-two years apart about the eponymous bull-jean (published in Sept 2022 by 53rd State Press). Bridgforth reveals how motherhood spurred her towards understanding her genders and sexuality, and how the desire to love, heal, and live in truth has compelled her writing and her life choices. Bridgforth details the weave between her early work in social justice (based in Austin, TX, where she and Jones met), her artmaking, and her remarkable commitment to community.Bridgforth's writing starts in the marrow of her own healing. As they discuss Bridgforth's work--as well as the work of suchluminaries as Laurie Carlos, Robbie McCauley, Ntozake Shange, Urban Bush Women,ralrsalinas, andBeverly Glenn-Copeland--Jones and Bridgforth offer tested strategies for living a grounded artistic life.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Dark, disturbing, deft, irreverent, and revelatory, Ignacio Lopez's monologue is at once a coming-of-age story, a horror story, and a highly theatrical experiment in radical empathy. Weaving together two voices-that of Ignacio himself as he narrates the painful process of coming out in a st…rictly Catholic family, and that of Jeffrey Dahmer, speaking in the wake of his arrest for the rape, murder, and dismemberment of 17 people-Severed asks: where do we draw the line between human and monster, severing, as we do so, the possibility of empathy, forgiveness, and understanding? What happens when we see ourselves reflected in the monster's eye? A dark and irreverent monologue that explores what happens when all we believe in is shattered.

Context, Synecdoche, Homonym, and Polyseme live in a house laden with clutter, but Etymology keeps bringing new deliveries for Context: a blank book, a conversation with the dentist, a key. Homonym and Polyseme sort and rearrange; they send what they can to the cloud (via helium balloon); o…ccasionally they smuggle out old things, lost for years, and new things they know Context will never need. Synecdoche tries to hold it all together and sings. Meanwhile, Context wonders whether listening is work-if it is labor, if it matters, and if what matters (if it matters) can be retrieved from the ever-accumulating material of living. meronymy is a kaleidoscopic, audiovisual performance-portrait of the technologies, ancient and modern, by which we cling to what we might otherwise forget. With wry tenderness and formal dexterity, Jendrzejewski builds a space in which to reckon with memory, loss, intrusion, and overflow amidst the cacophonic practice of living in language together.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Trained in classical piano and Marxism and raised on jazz, gospel, pop, hip hop, and Black revolutionary politics, Pulitzer Prize finalist Eisa Davis's plays are marked by her stunning intimacy with the praxis of music alongside radical change. In Angela's Mixtape,time shifts like a mixtape…,and like a mixtape, the play is both a memoir and a gift-for us, of course, and for Davis's aunt,activist and scholar Angela Y. Davis, under whose tutelage Davis readsDas Kapital andlearns to drive stick andhack her own way toward inheriting her legacy. In The History of Light, Davis counterpoints the intertwining fates of two couples under racialized pressures a generation apart. Lush with the sound of the grand piano, The History of Light is a study in black and white, love and alienation.Underlying the political clarity and formal virtuosity of Davis's writing are the unexpected crackles of a voice warming up, the crunchiness of missed notes. Because for an artist concerned, like Davis, with how we become who we are and might be, error is a necessary instrument-maybe the sounding weight.

With wry tenderness and formal dexterity, Jendrzejewski builds a space in which to reckon with memory, loss, intrusion, and overflow amidst the cacophonic practice of living in language together.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Trained in classical piano and Marxism and raised on jazz, gospel, pop, hip hop, and Black revolutionary politics, Pulitzer Prize finalist Eisa Davis's plays are marked by her stunning intimacy with the praxis of music alongside radical change. In Angela's Mixtape,time shifts like a mixtape…,and like a mixtape, the play is both a memoir and a gift-for us, of course, and for Davis's aunt,activist and scholar Angela Y. Davis, under whose tutelage Davis readsDas Kapital andlearns to drive stick andhack her own way toward inheriting her legacy. In The History of Light, Davis counterpoints the intertwining fates of two couples under racialized pressures a generation apart. Lush with the sound of the grand piano, The History of Light is a study in black and white, love and alienation.Underlying the political clarity and formal virtuosity of Davis's writing are the unexpected crackles of a voice warming up, the crunchiness of missed notes. Because for an artist concerned, like Davis, with how we become who we are and might be, error is a necessary instrument-maybe the sounding weight.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In June 2022, Sharon Bridgforth and Daniel Alexander Jones held an intimate and searching conversation about the pragmatics of making art and engaging the communities--living and ancestral--from which their work emerges. The two longtime friends reflect on Bridgforth'sbull-jean & dem/dey ba…ck, a collection of two performance/novels written twenty-two years apart about the eponymous bull-jean (published in Sept 2022 by 53rd State Press). Bridgforth reveals how motherhood spurred her towards understanding her genders and sexuality, and how the desire to love, heal, and live in truth has compelled her writing and her life choices. Bridgforth details the weave between her early work in social justice (based in Austin, TX, where she and Jones met), her artmaking, and her remarkable commitment to community.Bridgforth's writing starts in the marrow of her own healing. As they discuss Bridgforth's work--as well as the work of suchluminaries as Laurie Carlos, Robbie McCauley, Ntozake Shange, Urban Bush Women,ralrsalinas, andBeverly Glenn-Copeland--Jones and Bridgforth offer tested strategies for living a grounded artistic life.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This volume collects two plays by Erin Courtney, A Map of Virtue and Black Cat Lost. The Obie Awardwinning Map is a symmetrical play: part interview, part comedy, part horror story. Courtney's plays unfold in a delicate dance of pattern and narration; they ring out their images and meanings… as a sequence of bells: complicating, harmonizing, and remapping their senses as they run their idiosyncratic course. Two plays from gifted playwright Erin Courtney, including the acclaimed, Obie award-winning A Map of Virtue. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
