In history plays there is the potential for the audience to perceive the past and the present simultaneously. Within that perception audience members are then potentially motivated toward action within the performance. I analyze artistic techniques such as dual roles, narrators, setting and staging practices that Native Hawaiian playwright Victoria Nalani Kneubuhl uses in January 1893 (1993) and Ola Nā Iwi (1994). I approach my discussion of these artistic techniques with Marvin Carlson‘s concept of ghosting, Helen Gilbert and Joanne Tompkins‘ post-colonial theories about storytellers and space, and Freddie Rokem‘s work on creative energy and the performance of history. 2010-08-13 English text Miami University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1281283461 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1281283461 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
