And so it is a special pleasure to have the playwright of this production actually here on the Iowa State campus. PJ Gibson has written a great deal not just plays but poetry short stories but specifically plays twenty three fifteen which have been produced in the United States Europe and Africa. Three plays were commissioned by the Rights and Reasons Theatre of Brown University. Her play The Unveiling of Abigail was featured in the arts festival in Torino Italy and most importantly at least for us longtime since yesterday was produced twice in New York City in 1985 and January and October and won five Delco awards. And I'm talking with PJ. The Adolpho award is very comparable to the Black Tony Awards in New York. The production of longtime since yesterday won the best dramatic production award and PJ herself won the 1985 Playwright of the Year award. Other awards P.J. Gibson has received include a Schubert fellowship to study dramatic writing at Brandeis University where she earned a master's fine arts degree in playwriting and the A National Endowment for the Arts grant for playwriting. She's presently working on a screenplay and is teaching at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice and the College of New Rochelle in New York. Part of her residency will continue this evening after the AMC Theater production of Longtime. Since yesterday she will participate in a discussion of the play and then tomorrow morning at 11 o'clock. She will be conducting a workshop and focusing on the relationship between playwriting and acting. And I hope if you're at all interested in theater or acting or playwriting you'll join us for that. That's 10 to 14 summer home per topic. Today will be the black woman playwright in today's theatre who want to join me in welcoming to State University. Jacobson thank you for coming out this afternoon. It's very difficult to talk about the black woman and playwright in today's theatre without of course talking about myself and how I became a playwright. I began as a prose writer of fiction short stories and thought that I was going to follow in the footsteps of J.D. Salinger who I fell in love with when I was a young writer and then had the opportunity of having a J.P. Miller who wrote The Days of Wine and Roses and the Emmy Award winning people next door as a mentor. At the age of 14 and decided whom won an Emmy I they on. All right. The television or film. But it was when I went to college and I went to a college that had 850 quite well 850 women. And at any given time on the campus we only had about 30 black and Hispanic students. This was in the tail end of the 60s. The black movement was still very strong in the country and the small group of black students on the campus needed to have our voices heard in an environment that was predominantly white upstate New York. But the John Birch Society burning crosses on the other side of the lake. So the students knowing that I was a writer wanted to use me as a playwright to voice the feelings that we had in this environment. So I wrote my first play The Black Woman cast of 32 and we had the audacity to tour and we did who we thought the number of the campuses. But I really do not consider myself a playwright. I consider myself a writer who is also very much interested in theatre because I wrote play and not wrote plays and sorry I acted in a number of plays as an actress and drama was very interesting. I did a lot of the shows on the campus. If you are going to old woman school you find yourself sometimes bounding your breath and becoming guys from the male roles. And so I knew theater also on that campus because it's an all women's campus. We built the sets. We designed the sets. We did all of the things that men normally do on the coed campuses. So I love theater because of my acting and the technical end of it. It was a production of Lorraine Hansberry is to be young gifted and black on the campus of Rochester University Rochester in Rochester New York. That I heard Lorraine Hansberry in that place speak to all of the young gifted and black artists out there and what she felt we should do and how we should do it. And she spoke to me. I was sitting next to a Native American Indian who was a dancer and a Puerto Rican painter and myself a writer. And when the curtain closed and the lights rose in the house there were three teary eyed women professing that we would dedicate our lives to the art. And that's when I decided that I wanted to be a playwright. That's when I began to really study the writers O'Neil Williams Chekhov. And they taught me a great deal about the craft of writing for the theater actor. I seriously embarked on this thing called writing plays. I wrote a second play Shameful in Your Eyes which brought about a great deal of acclaim because it was a psychologically complex piece that the psychologists sociologists and clergy in the area found profound enough to talk about in their environments less oh something's happening. I think I might be embarking on something that might be what I need to be doing. So Drama became one of my majors in undergrad and then I applied for the playwriting program at Brandeis University. That's when I jumped in both feet and I decided that I was going to be a playwright. The problem with going into the field of writing for the theater in that manner was that I didn't know what I want to say. I didn't have a voice. And the atmosphere at Brandeis did not help me find my voice. I didn't know what to write about or what to say. I went to Brandeis University and most of my classmates were Jewish and they all had a voice. They all had something to say. The Holocaust was at the heart of what most of them had to say. I had the middle passage at the heart of what I had to say. I had the anger of what this country had done to my people at the heart of what I had to say. But I knew that screaming in anger was not theater and I had not found that bridge. So I began to look at the writers who had the black writers who had been writing for the theater and Lorraine Hansberry and Alice Childress and Langston Hughes were about an Ed Boleyn's were those writers that I began to look at their works and see what can I learn from them. How can I best hone in on what I have to say and what my voice is. It was Adrian Kennedy who taught me that there was a world in theater for the black writer that was not connected to realism. She was a surrealistic writer. She had gone beyond the traditional realistic and naturalistic settings. She also was not a part of the experimental theater that was going on in the 60s. And I began to learn from her. But I still had not found my roots. It was at after graduating from Brandeis University and having my thesis played done in New York City at the Chebeague Yellowed Theatre that I met George Houston Bass at the Rights and Reasons Theatre in Providence Rhode Island. This is at Brown University. What George does at his theater is that he brings in scholars from the academic world to research data on specific topics right. Monographs and then give these monographs to the playwrights to ingest and digest and create a play. And then he brings in professional actors from New York and the directors. Sometimes he directs and gives the playwright and the community a production that rivals. A Broadway production. I found my neck because I had been one of those individuals who had a very strong tie into academia. I liked studying. I liked reading. I liked research. And I liked things that were based on facts that someone could not just pass off and say oh that was a little whim of hers was met a cute little play. I wanted to have a voice that said something hopefully would change something during the time that I was at Brown University. I ran Georgia's theater for one year and he found out that I was a better playwright than I was approached who put me in this theater. He began to bring me in for a number of commissions. And over the years I've been commissioned to do four different plays with him working with scholars such as Joyce Ladner Vincent Harding Houston Baker Kenneth Clark and all of these are doctors. I should not negate the fact that they are scholars in their field. After I did this work and I found that these plays were good they had something to say. They were substantial pieces. I began to look at my peers. What were the other black women playwrights in this country writing about. What were they saying where their work is being done. Where were their works being done. And it was at that time that I was I met Dr. Margaret Wilkerson who's out of Berkeley University and she's one of our leading black theatrical theater historians and one of the foremost scholars on Lorraine Hansberry. I met her at one of the theater conferences and through that meeting and my sending scripts to her and over the years of conversing with her she found that not only was I among the new voices in theater from the black women playwrights but that there were many of us whose voices were not truly being heard across the country and felt that she needed to put together an anthology of these modern voices along with the classical writers of classical in that these were the women playwrights who laid the groundwork for us. Lorraine Hansberry analysis Childress and put together that anthology nine plays by Black Women. There were supposed to be eleven. But the finances would only allow nine. I have the pleasure of knowing personally all of those writers except one and have had the pleasure of having most of them in my home and I had been in theirs. We all had different voices and that begins the heart of what I have to say about the black woman playwright. We are individuals who see the world differently but we see the world through different types of eyes. We see the world through the eyes of being a woman. And we see the world through the eyes of being black. And then sometimes and most of the times we see it through the world of being black and the woman which is quite different than our counterparts in any other ethnic group because our history is different. Then we look at the world through our intellectual social or cultural backgrounds. And what we end up giving you is a broader spectrum of who we are as a people. We are different. There are some of the writers whose concerns are of the middle class. Catherine Collins writes in this area. Her play The Brothers is a reflection. The other play in the midnight hour is yet another. Alice Childress goes into the heart of a decade of our people who are borderline and middle class but blue collar ish in many instances not all. All of her characters. Because out of all of the writers I think and especially in terms of publication Alice Walker Alice Childre Substory Alice Childers has. Has given so much much to the theater world. In fact fiction because she writes novels as well. We have into Zaki Changa who deals with the deep emotional needs and plights of being a black woman in the relationship of male female relationships. The rain has very opened up the country's acceptance to the fact that black women could write plays and by no means was Lorraine Hansberry the first voice. But she was the first recognized voice in a play of course of A Raisin in the Sun was the one that opened the doors. But the race started to do something when she wrote a silence. Sidney Bruce things window that began to make white America look at this black woman playwright differently. She did not just write about the family of blacks aspiring to live in a white neighborhood and be accepted into the white fabric of this country to imitate and assimilate. She had characters who lived with white people who saw the world differently than the traditional view of how black people are viewed. So Lorraine began to open a door that said We don't have to as writers write the stereotypical types of plates we are not limited to. And by no means am I belittling River Niger or ceremonies in dark old men. I'm talking about plays that can go another route. We don't have the right exactly as Charles Goodall. We don't have the right exact exactly as Ed Boland's. We don't have to have going to Buffalo plays in the corner. There are other voices other things other ways of seeing our people. Adrian Kennedy in the funny house when Negro in Iraq's mess. Also did the same thing. The black woman voice was saying let us show you an array of a different way of seeing our people. We are educated. Some of us. Some of us are fanatical. Some of us are needing. Some of us don't need. Some of us are fluent. Some of us are not. And these voices came from women. There is a problem though. Theatre is basically a white male arena. The white male writer is acknowledged first. Then a white female writer is acknowledged. And the white female writer in this country has a great deal of obstacles in getting her work done. I'm a member of the Dramatists Guild and also a member of the women's project in the drama Too Skilled. And we are always meeting as women trying to figure out how do we get in and how do we get the types of productions that are white male counterparts sked. Well you couple that with being black and a woman playwright and you get another host of problems because we're seeing the world a little differently and talking about things that white male the white male theater world does not want to hear. For the most part. Or they wait and they throw us to a woman's project session. We're gonna have a women's theater month and we'll do the women. And if they don't do a woman's theater project for the next five years you may not see another woman. Playwrights work. Now when this happens the black women writers are also in there competing with the white women writers to be produced. And we find that there's just not enough of an arena for the works to be done. Unfortunately in the black theatre where we once had over 200 theatre companies in the country we're down to a very very small percentage of theaters that are available and accessible for the black writer in total. And in the black theater they are mostly male oriented. So once again. The black female rider is pushed back be behind the males and we in the black theater have to wait until they make a decision that we're going to do a season of black women riders ever going to do. We're also going to bring in black female directors. And we're also looking for pieces that are predominantly for women so that we can bring in all these actresses that are crying that they don't have any place to do. It's a catch 22 kind of thing because if you are a black woman who wakes up one day and decides that you want to write for the theater you have to understand that one you are at a black individual expected to write a certain type of play. And those are the plays that one belittle little the black men or say oh woe is me in white America I'm black. And all of my problems are due to the fact of white America or I aspire a need and desire so much to be white. Give me the opportunity. If you do this your works will be produced. That's guaranteed. But if you choose not to do this then you start to run into the massive obstacles that's across the board. As a black writer then the black female has that added problem of being a woman writer. We come second. So do the black women playwrights in this country who hang in there should be commended. It's not a money field. One does not get rich. One cannot buy a house. One can very rarely buy coats and shoes and bags from productions because most of the time we're kind of like pushed into a season so that we can. We the producers canopy's those audience members out there with. Where are the women writers or the women playwrights who are constantly calling and say when are you going to produce a woman's play. When and when are we not going to be put into a special kind of a category. Why can't we just be a part of the season. I the women's project at the American Place Theatre which has just pulled away that's a woman's section. And even in that setting the black female writer had to wait out of it. If you had six productions maybe one might be black. The black woman playwright has to get the general populace to accept the voice as the voice of a playwright who has something to say. Regardless of color of the arts. I made a decision in nineteen eighty in 1980 not to write another play which used the word black in it. I made that decision because I did not want to have my works produced because it was falling into the category of. This is a black play that talks about the black plight. I wanted to play that talked about people who happen to be black. Their dialect. Or their references would indicate to the audience that they that the play was black. Truly the casting of the actors would allow the audience to know that these characters are black. It's not necessary for me to stand before you and say that I am a black woman. That's obvious. Now what are you going to learn about me the individual. And it was through the help of working with Dr. Joyce Ladner and Dr. Kenneth Clark that I could look at sociological or psychological dilemmas of my people and create plays that dealt with these dilemmas and present that to my audiences. That was my choice as a writer. Consequently I ended up writing plays such as long time since yesterday. I wanted to write plays about middle class black America. I define middle class black America in three ways. One you either inherit that position. Descendants from the reconstruction period may have two three or four generations of lawyers and doctors and postal workers and teachers and ministers and morticians in your family that have gone to college or you educated yourself into middle class America. You may not have a penny in your bank account but intellectually and culturally you belong to middle class America. And three economically you've moved into middle class America. The black middle class American is virtually invisible. Short of Bill Cosby Diana Ross the new France place on CBS. And a few other recent works but virtually for the country lacked middle class America doesn't exist. There are people who really think that the lives of the women and long time since yesterday don't really belong to black women. They don't really look like that. They don't really dress like that. Or they are the exception. Yet those of us who are black know that there have been black professors and doctors and attorneys and morticians and postal workers who have owned their homes have two cars in their garages who have raised their children sent them to college that we exist in massive numbers not in the massive numbers that we should exist. But we're not the team. We need exceptions. This became something that I felt that I as a black woman playwright had to deal with. I had before me a number of playwrights such as Lorraine and Alice who had begun to open the door so that some people would be receptive to the fact that yes black middle class America exists. Kathleen Collins in her place. The brother. And in the middle. Midnight hour had let the country know. Yes black middle class America exists that strivers row in Harlem existed and still exists. These voices must be heard from. If we're going to have a true black theater and a true represent imitation of the black experience in theater we must have this. We must have both ends of the spectrum so that the audience and the students of theater can see the true. Patchwork quilt representation of the black people in this country. So that was my my route that I took. And it was a hard route to get to because I did not know in graduate school what to write about. My teachers did not help me. I would have instructors say wonderful characterisation wonderful dialogue great plots. But the play was thin. It had absolutely nothing to say. And I wanted to say something. A Raisin in the Sun said something. It made some people in this country sit up and take note of this type of people in the community who wanted a better life and what their obstacles obstacles were in trying to attain that in a long time since yesterday. I do with like character engineering who comes from and Libya who come from an environment where the strong sociological influences of cultural groups make or break individuals in the black community. There are groups like the Lakes and the Jack and Jill and in the area that I grew up in called the Twiggs in the areas like all the TO organisation is called the Twigs. And these organizations are comparable to what you might equate the social groups of the blue blood children of the Mayflower you know the descendants of the Mayflower the Kennedys the Rockefeller as these organizations that they have that their children grow up in and they are supposed to act and do things in a precise manner. You marry this type of a person. You go to this type of a school. You live in this type of home you vacation in this spot you learn X number of languages. We understand that when we read The Great Gatsby we understand that world for white America but it exists for black America and it has existed for black America for many years. I'm not talking 20 years 30 years. I'm talking about many years. And the influences of these cultural groups on the individual can be deadly if the individual does not understand where it's going to lead them. Now nowhere looks at the organizations and says I don't care. I want to be an artist. This is what I want to do. And I don't care. And I'll date him even though he's not going to college. I think he's keep Janine on the other hand has been told Walter is going to be a doctor. And Walter will take care of you. And Walter will make sure that you will live in suburbia. And Walter will make sure that you will visit parents. You must go to Paris. You must see the Eiffel Tower. You must Walter will make sure that your children will go to Harvard or Morgan office and your children will meet children who will go to Morgan. Harvard Fisk Spelman. You must therefore you cannot look at Billy. And Johnny won't look at Billy. And what happens to Jimmy. A bright educated woman who wakes up one day and realizes that her whole life passed by because she followed this cool little route that her family and the family next door and the family across the street and the members of the church set out for her to to follow. That was part of the heart of what set me into the creation of long time since yesterday. Because this world exists and there are many who look at who have looked at the work and said I don't understand. I don't understand what this this tweeks thing is. It is no different than those social groups in upper middle class white America that alter the way people live. Then I have characters in long time since yesterday who are fluent because the educational system permitted them that luxury as in the character of Aleesha who for all intents and purposes should have been a statistic. Her parents left them when they were children. They were supposed to come up through the welfare system and amount to nothing but she became something. Then there was another problem in black America and that has to do with coloring. The coloring problem is that we have a kind of a stepping ladder pecking order of shading of who you are where you are what you are to be just by virtue of the color of your skin and the texture of your hair. Some families will ostracize a member of a family who is not light enough whose eyes aren't different enough and whose hair texture is not nice enough that they can be considered different from the other masses. To pull a phrase from Zora Neale Hurston as their eyes were watching God the character Mrs. Turner who says We are a class off from the rest of them. There are black individuals in this country who would like to class off from the masses and we have in Dr Thelma Carson a woman who has been raised in that kind of a family. These kinds of examples of individual presents to the audience. Another way of looking at black people. You are given an opportunity to look at the complexities the psychological and sociological complexities of a group of people that for many years have been look that one dimensional man. Kathleen Collinses plays in the midnight hour deals with the upper middle class black family. It's a period piece. And these individuals are from generations of a fluid black people. The brothers of fluid black people. These voices need to be heard and that becomes one. The plight of the playwright is to make sure that that voice is heard and that it is heard in the massive arena. And that is the arena of Broadway and off Broadway. But it also must be heard in the community theaters and the college theaters. And the works need to be taught in the theater courses so that when a student walks out of a theater course and gets a degree in theatrical arts they have learned about the voices of people who write for that arena and not just one spectrum. When I first started teaching Black Theater back in 1974 I thought it was absurd to have the title that cause black theater because there weren't enough writers who were black writing surrealistic words which were published. There weren't enough black writers who were writing for the theater of the absurd. Most of the works were realistic and naturalistic. How can you talk about black theater. The writers exist but the publishers did not find the works worthy of being produced published. It took until nineteen eighty six for Margaret Wilkerson to convince New American Library to do the nine plays by black women theater company theater companies and the theater departments across the country who had decided to put the black voice into the curriculum had been limited to plays that have not been that WHO plays which were first published in the late 60s and have not had any new voices since then. So that the plays are a reflection of what happened in the 60s and 70s had not been dealt with by neither the male writers or the female writers. And the female writers are alive here in this country. They are alive. They are working in many instances a great deal harder than the black male writers saw. And much of that is coming out of the need to have their voices heard. Also the black woman playwright knows that there are many black actresses who need roles. They need the roles because most of the plays that had been published by the black male writers are predominantly male cast pieces. And in the other instances the roles that are available for the females many of the female actresses well being redundant actresses and female. Many of the actresses find degrading. The actresses are tired of playing prostitutes. They're tired of playing castrating women. And this is something that the black woman playwright knows to be a fact and have been trying to create a new alternative roles for the actresses. Another reason for a long time since yesterday. Another reason for brown silk and magenta sunsets from my works so that the actors have something that she can be proud of a role that she can be proud of doing and the role would meet. It is difficult to. I find it very difficult to explain what is expected of the black woman plant. Because it is almost as though we were talking about dealing talking to a three dimensional world but we're really dealing in a fourth dimension because the black woman writer always always is look to her work is always looked at as having to be a certain way and a deviation from that. Norm makes her work subject to much criticism. Long time since yesterday a big chill. Because the play is about Middle-Class Blacks who class people who come together for a reunion is equal to what the Big Chill was about more specifically because it's based upon a suicide. The work was not look that originally for what it was about. These black women who were complex individuals who came together at their 17 years past thought simply because the formula was very similar to the big chill. Now long time was written before the Big Chill even made its way to the movie houses. What does a playwright. More specifically a woman playwright an adult. A black woman playwright. Do when the country looks at the words and says Oh it's like this. It's similar to that. It's not saying anything new. Let's pass it on. It is difficult to go beyond the way the theatrical world wants to see the works if it does not fall into the norm of the way the theater has decided it wants to see the black voice. Kathleen Collins's work is not known all over the country. It should be. It should be. But she's not writing the same types of work as into Zachy shamed. And that I see becomes part of the plight of being a black female writer. The country must accept the voice of the writer who happens to be a woman and who happens to be black. And listen to these stories. Not expect the formula otherwise you'll lose the voice of the other black woman playwright. And if you lose that voice you're going to lose a part of your own history because we are a part of the history of this country. Adrian Kennedy has given us a great deal in introducing the wider arena to surrealism from the black woman's point of view. She could have written it in a realistic mode and been accepted in that man. She was very lucky. But there are other writers who want to write in the surrealistic mode and are afraid to embark on it because of the traditional stance of the way things ought to be. So in closing I am fortunate that I found a George Houston Bass's theatre a world in which I was able to find a voice. I was also very fortunate in the New York community in the Federal Open Federal Theatre Woody Kings and Federal Theatre in the late Hazel of Riots Richard Allan Centre in the Frederick Douglass Creative Arts Center headed by Fred Hudson to have my works done there.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://iastate.aviaryplatform.com/collections/2486/collection_resources/36570/file/105643#t=0.0,2774.088"}]}]}]}
