Ebony The Black Rose a Tale of Antwàn Lan Gomye - Bob Lapierre - Bog

Many good plays have been written by residents of Ayiti, but because of language barrier they remain unfamiliar to the world. Ebony: The Black Rose . . . was written in a much-diffused tongue, with the hope that it would prompt new awareness about theatre in my place of birth, and about the manipulation of the theatre for either domination or liberation.This piece is wholly dedicated to the memory of an unknown Ayitian philosopher, Antwàn Lan Gomye. It is also in dedication to a native of Jeremy (Antwàn's birth place), the former Mrinister of Communication, during the tenure of her Excellence, Ertha Pascal Trouillot, in Ayiti, Mr. Alfred Mentor, who helped me get the story straight. To Ayiti and all Ayitians.
