The study, which focuses on stories written by francophone, anglophone, and Indigenous playwrights, attempts to discover: 1) In what ways do the plays show the intertwining of ecocide, colonialism, gender, and racial inequalities in Canada? And 2) what new tropes and theatrical forms emerge from this political theatre? This research shows that the plays analysed create narrative structures and systems of representation (e.g., of gender, of human/nonhuman relationships) that stress the entangling of racial and gender inequalities in environmental destruction, highlighting the importance of animal studies and decolonial thinking, two aspects sometimes absent from mainstream ecofeminist critique.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/TheatreEcofeminismIndigenous PeoplesNon-HumanCanadaMaterias::Investigación::62 Ciencias de las artes y las letras::6202 Teoría, análisis y crítica literarias::620201 Crítica de textosMaterias::Investigación::62 Ciencias de las artes y las letras::6202 Teoría, análisis y crítica literarias::620202 Análisis literarioMaterias::Investigación::62 Ciencias de las artes y las letras::6203 Teoría, análisis y crítica de las bellas artes::620310 Teatrodoctoral thesisopen access
