A feminist drama that gained considerable critical and commercial success when it originally ran on Broadway. The play is about a husband and wife who also happen to be artists.

(5 étoiles)

Fantastic tale of the push and pull of society on the "Modern Woman" of the early 20th century. Feminists will hold up Rachel as the champion of the tale. Those in favor of the Patriarchy will rest in the willing arms of Daisy. The tale does not choose its sides, but rather shows the reality of its day without comment, only consideration.
