These were translated into Armenian and published in 2008. These plays are a revelation in the literary heritage of Saroyan not only in terms of open and quite bold statements concerning Armenian identity and the Armenian question but also in terms of form and structure. Saroyan called these plays "plays about Armenians". In determining the genre of these plays, the author observes them in the post-modern context and highlights distinctive features of contemporary documentary drama in the plays. The author notes that in staging these plays directors may need to make use of features of documentary theater.
