I had the pleasure of directing this play at a one-act play festival this year and could not have picked a better play to capture a haunting actuality overshadowed by ridiculous comedy. A commentary on the treatment of women in the 1900s, this play completely masks the emotions of the characters behind a strange, sparkly, pink, girly, hazy facade of "this is fine." If you are looking for a familiar-feeling period piece henpecked by modern humor, this is the play for you.
