Her plays, which she often directs, include Rabordaille (1989), Lettres indiennes (1993, translated asCrosscurrents for UBU Repertory Theater in New York), Survols (1996), all published, and the unpublished Carfax (1981), Bâton Maréchal (1987), Camille etJustine (1992), Madjaka (1996), and Carêmes (1998). They have been performed in Guadeloupe and in many venues in France. Dambury's dialogue is sharp,concise, poetic yet realistic, and she constantly redefines her style. Contemporary women's issues in the Caribbean are her main concern. Her plays haveproved popular and culturally important, partly because they represent the history of violence and joy of the Caribbean people.Mංർඁൾඅංඇൾ Rංർൾ-MൺඑංආංඇPRINTED FROM OXFORD REFERENCE (www.oxfordreference.com).
