Please join Dr. Ana Elena Puga, dual professor of Spanish and Portuguese as well as Theatre, Film, and Media Arts at the Ohio State University, for a lecture and discussion on Japanese migration and cultural identity in Latin America. Dr. Puga will share the story of how the Japanese diaspora has influenced and continues to influence the cultural landscape of Latin America through examples of theater and beyond.
Dr. Ana Elena Puga's research interests include performance studies, contemporary Latin American theater, and contemporary Japanese theater. She is currently co-editing an anthology titled Inside Contemporary Japanese Theatre: Rehearsal as Creative Process.
