Abstract

Since her emergence on to London’s new writing scene in 2003, debbie tucker green has become widely recognized as one of the most innovative (black) British (woman) playwrights of the early twenty-first century. Her first two plays were produced within weeks of each other at the Soho Theatre (dirty butterfly (2003)) and Hampstead Theatre (born bad (2003)), and subsequent productions have been shown in the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) New Works Festival in Stratford and at the Soho Theatre (trade (2005)), and at the Young Vic (generations (2007) and dirty butterfly revival (2008)). tucker green has also become established as a Royal Court writer (stoning mary (2005), random (2008) and truth and reconciliation (2011)), and she is the first black woman to have two plays premiere on the main stage downstairs. 1 International recognition, which is rare for black British playwrights, is further testament to her groundbreaking acclaim.2 KeywordsFair TradeRestorative JusticeChild SoldierHuman WasteReconciliation CommissionThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
