Silence that speaks- A Feminist Dialogics Approach in Kee Thuan Chye's PlaysErda Bakar
This paper analyses two of Kee Thuan Chye's plays; The Big Purge (2004) and The Swordfish, then The Concubine (2009) in which he has appropriated and reimagined history by giving it a flair of contemporaneity in order to draw a parallel with the current socio-political climate. He is a firm believer of freedom of expression and racial equality. His plays become his didactic tool of expressing his dismay and frustration towards the folly and malfunctions in the society. He believes that everybody needs to rise and eliminate their fear from speaking up their minds regardless of their race, status and gender. In these two plays, Kee has featured and centralised his female characters by empowering them with voice and agency. Armed with the literary tools of feminist dialogics which is derived from Bakhtin’s theory of utterances and dialogism and strategies of historical re-visioning, this study investigates and explores Kee’s representations of his female characters and the various ways that he has liberated them from being passive and silent beings. He has turned them into intrepid and dissecting characters who dare to contest the norms, values and even traditions. It is found that the dissecting voices of Kee’s female characters contain veiled messages and it is dialogic in nature. Their voices are caught in between opposition and struggle which echoes Kee’s manifested resistance towards the authority’s establishment of power.
