“Theatre of the Censored”: How Contemporary Chinese Artists Subvert Commercial Theatre Censorship
Whew! First draft: done! What a journey this summer has been. While the paper is still in the polishing-up stages, I am incredibly proud of the work I've done in getting to these findings, as well as incredibly grateful to the incredible people who helped me along the way.
I'm a current undergrad student at Barnard College pursuing a double-major in Theatre & Human Rights, with a minor in East Asian Studies. I'm often asked why I’m studying such seemingly divergent fields. For me, these subjects go hand in hand: my diplomacy and human rights practice are informed by an empathy uniquely cultivated from my experience in the arts; my acting on theatrical stages is enriched by my understanding of what is happening on the "world stage." Mastering both mediums is my answer to the seemingly unsolveable divisions we face today. My work bridges these fields in an innovative, urgent and radical effort to highlight our shared humanity at a time we need it most.
