    A fascinating play about a fascinating historical figure. This would make a nice addition to Women's History Month programming, perhaps. Give it a read and learn something new!

  • Lainie Vansant: Death's Defeat

    A heartbreaking story made even more painful by the characters' optimism. This is a tight, clean moment in which young characters grapple with big things. If you have the chance, give it to some teenagers and see what they can do!
