That’s (Not) All She Wrote II – Saturday, Matinee
July 29, 2023 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
$15
That’s (Not) All She Wrote II is a collection of plays and monologues written and performed by eight local women playwrights and WCT members. The writers will read from their own work in a specially created salon-like setting.
This year, the work by female playwrights needed to ‘pass’ The Bechdel Test, a method developed in 1985 to evaluate the representation of women in film, TV, and theater. Bechdel rules decree that at least two female characters talk to each other about something other than a man.
The plays:
Hunter’s Moon (excerpt) by Barbara Dana
Cluck by Linda Bidwell Delaney
Assisted Living by Brenda Hettmansberger
From Ballet to the Battlefield by Kimberly Mallory
Sleep Study by Evelyn Mertens
Filled (a monologue) and Hunger (an excerpt) by Serena Norr
Mother Tree by Loretta Oleck
A Fashionable Funeral by Bette Carlson Siler
