GRISWOLD
by Angela J. Davis
A Benefit Reading
FEATURING Annette Bening

On the eve of the sexual revolution, a bold and iconoclastic woman in her sixties will engineer her own criminal arrest, resulting in the landmark and now increasingly relevant Supreme Court case, Griswold v. Connecticut, which establishes a right of sexual privacy and directly paves the way for other guarantees of liberty, including, on the 60th anniversary of the Griswold case, the right of same-sex couples to marry.
Fusing magical realism, meta-theatrical elements, comedic truth, and classical docudrama, Griswold mines the extraordinary events leading to the Griswold v. Connecticut case and the essential link between the right of sexual privacy and human dignity.
