Contemporary Drama/2 New Plays & Aristotle

Number of Pages 5

A 5 page research paper/essay that examines how modern theater differs from the ancient paradigm for tragedy as defined by Aristotle and looks specifically at two plays, “Jesus Hopped the A Train” by Stephen A. Guirgis and “Red Light Winter” by Adam Rapp, in order to examine these plays in terms of how contemporary playwrights challenge Aristotelian concepts. The writer draws on play reviews for this process. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
