DESCRIPTION:
Finally! A book for lesbians who are tired of "passing" at auditions and in acting classes and workshops! Here at last, from one of the most talented and inventive contemporary playwrights, is a book of thirty-two monologues and sixty scenes by, for, and about lesbians. These strategies include the separatism of Hildegard von Bingen, the confrontation of sexual violation in the art of Artemisia Gentileschi, the liberation struggle of Harriet Tubman, the repression and denial of Louisa May Alcott, the resistance of Mary Mallon ("Typhoid Mary").. This collection includes scenes with characters taken from lesbian history: Jane Addams, Charlotte Cushman, Joan of A
Kimberly said Nice monologues, but not for me. They were nice yes, but I didn't find one that suites me. I ended up finding one out of a book in the library instead.
