Columbia Blue Glaze Theater Presents Genevieve Flaven's 99WOMEN
by A.A. Cristi
- Oct 26, 2018
Columbia Blue Glaze Theater will be staging a production of 99 Women by French playwright Genevieve Flaven in the Glicker-Milstein Theater. The production, directed by Genevieve Wang, seeks to explore what it means to identify as a woman in contemporary times and tells the stories of 99 women from all over the world. The stories, based on interviews conducted with real women, will be told in the form of sequential monologues about their individual lived experiences. What happens when a woman does not conform to the ideals of society? Or even when they do conform? The characters in this play speak of their bodies, their families, their friends, the men in their lives, their relationships with other women, and most importantly, they speak of themselves. 99 Women does not promise to provide answers, but rather, seeks to complicate the audience's understanding of what it means to exist as a woman in a world where women's voices are more important than ever.
