Scrambled Eggs

by Jessica Marie Fisher

It is 1949, and Whitney feels isolated. James thinks Whitney is unwell. Doris is a homosexual...so is Maggie. Maggie is pregnant and anxious. Frank doesn't know how to help her. Richard has PTSD from the war and drinks too much. Helen doesn't know how to help him either. Doctor Walter Freeman II claims that he has a solution.

Scrambled Eggs

    I really liked this play. It talks of privilege, the detestable treatment of women, and controversial neurological procedures that do nothing but harm. I liked the interaction of the characters all driving towards a goal of The American Dream family, with none of them coming close to achieving this, and destroying their souls in the process.
