Disability studies is an emerging interdisciplinary field of scholarship that critically examines issues related to the dynamic interplays between disability and various aspects of culture and so ciety. The increased interest in disability in the various academic field reveals its widespread cultural and political implications for society as a whole. Disability Studies, like ethnic, cultural, and feminist studies, has developed from a position of engagement and activism rather than one of detachment. Postmodern insights like feminism and postcolonialism are appropriate and useful for the development of comprehensive disability theory. They have given a room for deconstruction of the traditional dichotomy of male/ female, civilization/ savagery, and superiority/inferiority. This paper examines how modern drama represents disability, focusing on The Glass Menager ie by Tennessee Williams and The Elephant Man by Bernard Pomerance. Laura Wingfield in The Glass Menagerie is a female character who has twice exceptional disabilities; physically crippled and emotional disorder. John Merrick, a Victorian sideshow \'freak\' whose deformed and disabled body earned him the name of \'elephant man,\' is another character to be analysed in this paper. The two dramatic characters explore the meaning and questions about disability as a socio-political status related to their own identities, along with the development of those plays. The dramatic representation of disability in those plays suggests some possibilities of the cult ural and political resistance discourse. Aesthetic of disability holds the transformative promise of praxis or revolution. It is a subversive discourse that confronts oppressive social reality and converts it into something liberatory. The further development of disability studies in the field of literary art is expected for the infinite valuable interpretation of disability.
