Jaguar Troupe - Spring Play

The Women

Adapted for our stage

by J. Raven-Smart

original play by Clare Boothe Luce

Screenplay by Diane English

Directed by J. Raven-Smart

Jaguar Troupe Production

Full length, Tender Comedy, Rated: PG-13

 

Setting:  Manhattan, present day, Story centers on 4 women whose friendships are tested by one of the women struggling with a husband who has been unfaithful.  The play is 98% female cast. While husbands & bosses frequently are the subject of their lively discussions and play an important role in the action on-stage, they are strictly characters mentioned but never seen:  the only males seen are a hairdresser and a New Age Seminar Leader.

While many might refer to this as a “chick” play, the social commentary about what is true about the American upper class woman, both positive and negative is both thought provoking and amusing.  ~  J. Raven-Smart, director

PG-13*:  mild language, divorce, adultery, sexual innuendo, 1 gay lifestyle reference

*While most high school plays don’t place an audience rating on their plays, I feel it is obligation to the community and their families.  jrs
