The history of Asian American theatre has at its backdrop racial prejudice, yellow face and stereotyping of characters which resulted in forced silence and repression of talents. However, this denial of opportunities became the springboard for frustrated Asian American writers and artists to create their own space wherein they as a community could collaborate and find an outlet for their creative expression. Writing by themselves gave them the autonomy over what they chose to tell and how they told it. No yellow faced white actor had to replace a deserving Asian actor and in this way they challenged the dominant culture. Two Asian American plays Paper Angels and Tea are studied to understand how Asian American writers use theater as a platform to fight typecasting and misrepresentation by talking about their own experiences which are otherwise obliterated by the senility of white history. Key Words: mainstream society, social prejudice, metamorphosis, racial discrimination, communal collaboration etc.
