    I’ve read this multiple times and every time it gets me with its touching beauty.

If anyone’s looking for a play that examines the depths of being human and being a hopeful mother, I’d argue look no further than this play.

    Historic AND comedic? This would be a perfect addition to any women’s short play festival. From hysteria-coping to glitter tea, this take on “The Yellow Wallpaper” sparkles with its wit and ingenuity.
