Theatre@First Kicks Off 10th Season with TOP GIRLS, Now thru 2/1

Theatre@First kicks off its 10th season in a new venue with Caryl Churchill's inspiring and entertaining play, Top Girls, at the Davis Square Theatre, tonight, January 23rd - February 1st, 2014.

As relevant today as when it was written in 1982, Top Girls celebrates the choices required to reach the top. Featuring the famous dinner-party scene with extraordinary women of history and legend, this acute and funny script ranges from the 9th century to modern office politics.

Theatre@First is proud to celebrate playwright Caryl Churchill's 75th birthday year with her most famous, ground-breaking work.

The Somerville production of Top Girls features nine amazing local women led by the versatile Kathy-Ann Hart as Marlene. Fresh off the Christmas Revels, Director Liz Adams brings her experience as a professional actor to the innovative staging of this show. For her directorial debut with Theatre@First, Adams aims to connect the history of women with dreams for our shared future. With acerbic dialogue and stiletto-sharp characters, Top Girls will take you for a dizzying ride.
