Abstract

By incorporating the real with the magical or by using what is known as Magical Realism, some modern playwrights have tried to represent the grief of their characters. These characters suffer from bereavement and loss of persons or valuable objects. As a response, they undergo some of (or all) the stages of grief stated by psychologists. Tracing their grief in accordance with the scenes of magical realism is the aim of this research paper. The characters of Lane and Charles in Sarah Ruhl's play, The Clean House (2004) are taken as examples. Also, the character of Marisol in Jose Rivera's play entitled with the same name (1992) is inspected. These three characters are white-collar persons.
