Ebony: The Black Rose or a Tale of Antwan Lan Gomye - Bob Lapierre - Bog

Many good plays penned by residents of Ayiti remain unknown to the world because of the language barrier. Ebony: The Black Rose..., formulated in a much-diffused language: American English, anticipates promoting new awareness about theatre in my place of birth, and about the manipulation of the theatre for either domination or liberation. There shall be no argument that the earliest recording of dramatic experiences began with the Greeks in Europe, but as well there should not be any squabble to recognize that Cap-François, in Ayiti, the once most impressive colonial city in the American continent, also called "the Paris of the Antilles," is the hub of the theatre arts in the heart of America (read Bob Lapierre: The Ayitian Theatre).
