Abstract:
These plays represent Sterling Houston's themes and styles. High Yellow Rose deflates the Alamo myth by casting the heroes as women. Isis in Nubia sets the Isis/Osiris myth in West Africa. Black Lily and White Lily is a domestic drama exploring racial tensions. Miranda Rites enacts Martha Mitchell's last days in hospital.
