    This would be a heckuva lot of fun to stage. A smartly-planned woman’s independence day goes awry and some truths come home. But before any of the truths is wacky mayhem and action-packed chaos. And one of the truths is - we’ve all been n the center of that chaos. We just hate to admit it.

    Funny, smart, fast paced play with 3 great characters. Easy to see why it's an audience favourite. Perfect for festivals.

    WOMEN OF THE WORLD is a beautiful, funny, and clever look at three young women just starting out with a perfect twist at the end. This would be great fun to see staged.
