How do the narratives of “Asian” women travel across the borderlines, languages, and bodies?


We made a script in a documentary theater format. The scripts about personal experiences of Asian females were written and exchanged across country groups. The other group that received the script responded/ read/ acted it out. The theater process and performance was documented in a video.





 





We had online sessions regularly to have a conversation between each TAs, collaborators, and interviewees, to learn script writing and performance, and to bring together all participants.
