Voices: Monologues and Dramatic Texts for Caribbean Actors. Edited by Yvonne Weekes  
 

Voices: Monologues and Dramatic Texts for Caribbean Actors contains 36 dramatic monologues, 16 of which are written by Yvonne Weekes. This dramatic text also includes the work of Winston Farrell, Carla Springer Hunte, Mark Jason Welch, Kenneth Lewis (Barbados); Lasana Sekou (St. Martin); Zahra Airall (Antigua) and Simeon Moodoo (Trinidad and Tobago)  

 

This text captures the essence of our Caribbean human spirit and reignites dialogue among Caribbean nations. It is an indelible educational resource which will undoubtedly add value to our young people's sense of self and a triumphant finding for Performing Arts students in their search for Caribbean-based performance material'.

No Mad By Yvonne Weekes

"NOMAD, a survivors' handbook, a travellers' guide for anyone who has known the burden of a life bundled into bags. Weekes' word journeys conjure...and reveal the inner world of the eternal wanderers."--A-dZiko Simba Gegele

"After the Soufrière Hills volcano explosion...in 'exile' from her beloved Montserrat,...choking memories of the flaming mountain follow the poet like an untamable spectre of awe and fear that awakens in her the determination to face life's challenges with stubborn grit."--J.A. George Irish
