EVENT DETAILS

Talking With . . .

by Jane Martin

January 30-February 9

Talking With… is a collection of sharp, bittersweet portraits of women, many of whom have reacted to disappointments by melting into private worlds. Idiosyncratic characters amuse, move, and frighten, always speaking from the depths of their souls. These eleven ten-minute monologues include a baton twirler, a fundamentalist snake handler, an ex-rodeo rider, and an actress willing to go to any length to get a job. It premiered at the Manhattan Theatre Club in New York in 1982 and has been performed around the world.

“A dramatist with an original voice… [and] gladsome humor.” – The New York Times

“With Jane Martin, the monologue has taken on a new poetic form, intensive in its method and revelatory in its impact.” – Philadelphia Inquirer

Directed by: Theresa Louviere & Michael Dalme
