- Dramaturgy
Deanna Downes, Ph.D., M.F.A., is an artist/scholar and a creative consultant/producer with Green Apu Productions focusing on reimagining and radicalizing process, production, performance, and participation in live performance arts for, by, with, and in community. Deanna’s research is a rediscovery of the work of three Black female playwrights in the years 1915 to 1920, and an identification of them as early practitioners of a queer Black feminist theatre aesthetic.
