The Yellow Wallpaper

Run time: 50 min's --- $1000/performance

Based on the notable short story by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, an ensemble cast of 7 take on this compelling story of a woman's struggle with sanity. The story is a testament to the importance of living life with dignity and purpose, and the consequences of overlooking that truth. Appealing to many schools of thought, the story has been hailed by feminists as a condemnation of the sexism residing in the medical profession; as well as psychotherapists who claim it to be a resounding example of the descent into madness. Gilman herself stated, "The story was not intended to drive people crazy, but to save people from being driven crazy, and it worked.'
