Hong Kong, Canada: Playwriting as Critical Ethnography

Tara Goldstein

University of Toronto

For the past 4 years, the author has been conducting critical ethnographic fieldwork in a Canadian multilingual high school and thinking about the ways she might write up her findings. In an attempt to represent the experiences of those who participated in her study in a way that does not lead to the reproduction of the policies and practices of colonialism and racism she means to challenge, the author has experimented with the genre of playwriting. The piece contains an edited version of the author’s Hong Kong, Canada, a fictional but ethnographically informed play about some of the linguistic and social dilemmas facing immigrant youth and their Canadian-born classmates. A short explanation of why and how the script came to be written follows the play. A brief discussion of audience responses to the play concludes the article.
