We Have Suffered Enough: The Cost of Performing Trauma for Women of Color
by Melisa Pereyra
From the article:
Since the beginning of my career in the American regional theatre, I have been embodying roles from what the West considers “classical” plays. Beloved female characters have, through my body, been verbally, mentally, and sexually abused; mutilated, murdered, and exiled. I can count on one hand the times my characters weren’t harmed.
I have suffered enough.
