←Recommendations of Women Wear White - Ten Minute Play

I am in favor of women's rights but there's always questions that remain
I liked the speeches, very historic. Kennedy shows the difficulties of minorities in the scheme of things very well in this fast-moving dialogue

This ten-minute piece boldly reveals the roots of the women's movement. What is truly surprising is how far we are in time from its origins, yet how deeply the remnants ingrained in us over millennia - along with the guilt they've created - are still present in our lives.

This play went to some really unexpected places for me. Loved the way Kennedy plays with time. An important message about parts of women's suffrage that so many conveniently sweep under the rug. A great ensemble short.

In just ten minutes, this goes from an exciting 'girl power' romp to an eerie and unsettling look at the darker side of our heroes. Women Wear White shines an important light on history and on the state of feminism today. Produce this play - people need to see it!

Interesting and exciting: I was on the edge of my seat, pleased that I had no idea where this piece would go next. As a white woman, I appreciated that this piece directly indicted me without pulling any punches. An excellent and polished piece of theatre.

Adams wrote one of the most interesting pieces of political theatre I've seen in a while here. She doesn't pull any punches with this one. Great piece.

"Women Wear White" starts out as a clever satirical piece about white supremacy in progressive political moments that only grows increasingly disturbing and horrifying. In a brief amount of time, Lindsay Adams deftly exposes the blind spots of any political movement, shining light on the ugly side of the deeply flawed people involved. This is a play that really makes you think about where we came from, and how not-very-far we've actually come.

The play begins as a pointed critique of White Feminism, and sharpens its knives from there. It carves away at any pretense of plausible deniability, until the failures of inclusion of a movement that was supposed to be about expanding rights (then and now) are laid bare. Simultaneously a galvanizing war cry for those who already want to do better, and a vital, theatrical history lesson for everybody else.

The lesson of "those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it" is taught well and powerfully in this ten-minute play, heard at the 2019 Midwest Dramatists Conference. Lindsay Adams shows us how the message of the past can be a haunting reminder of how far we have to go in overcoming our past.

Eek! So good! I did not see where this one was going, but it all worked together so perfectly. I cannot say much (lest I get into spoilery territory), but this is a savage, funny, and thought-provoking piece of political commentary that manages to talk about MANY things at once. Saw at the 2019 Midwest Dramatists Conference, and highly recommend.
