Recommendations of Women Wear White - Ten Minute Play

  • Rachael Carnes: Women Wear White - Ten Minute Play

    A complex conversation on intersectional feminism cached within a comedy with unexpected bite. I heard a reading at the Midwestern Dramatist Center conference that invited a lively and thought provoking response from the audience.

  • Katherine Gwynn: Women Wear White - Ten Minute Play

    I directed this play for a festival in Kansas City, and was drawn in from the first page. Adams exposes both the white supremacy historically underlying many of the well-known white suffragettes in history, and how this pattern repeats itself in 'feminist' activism all too often today. An incisive and taut 10 minute that isn't afraid to let the audience sit in discomfort.

  • Asher Wyndham: Women Wear White - Ten Minute Play

    HIghly recommended 10-minute that exposes -- through humor -- a longstanding problem with feminism, even now in the age of #metoo movement: its ideology and rhetoric (styled since the early days of the Suffragettes (serves the interests of white women, and it's ignorant of the realities of other women -- women of color. A conversation-starter, a smart choice for any festival on women, politics, and social issues. The ending, a transformation through costuming, was totally expected; this spectacle serves to make its point more poignant, its criticism more severe. Well done!

    I had the great privilege of seeing this in a festival in Kansas City. Necessary watching and/or reading for all women who can vote. I am a huge fan of this playwright, and her variety in the works she brings to the table are amazing.

    A really fantastic ten minute play. Adams blends history in this piece beautifully, and creates an incredibly poignant and funny play that takes a look at feminism and intersectionality in a clever and interesting way.

  • Michelle Tyrene Johnson: Women Wear White - Ten Minute Play

    I got to see this play in a festival and I loved that in just 10 minutes it was topical, historical, clever and coy. When that happens in such a short piece, more so than in longer pieces, you know that the writing is what leads the way. Also, it was incredibly satisfying to see someone write abou intersectionality and feminism in a meaningful yet enjoyable way.
