Examines seven plays by Ina Cesaire, Maryse Conde, Gerty Dambury, and Simone Schwarz-Bart that premiered in the French Caribbean or in France in the 1980s and 1990s and soon thereafter travelled to the United States. Emily Sahakian argues that these late-twentieth-century plays by French Caribbean women writers dramatize and enact creolization.
