SUMMARY:On Her Shoulders - How Far Have We Come?
DESCRIPTION:New Perspectives Theatre Company\nin association with the New School for Drama\ninvite you to join us the next ON HER SHOULDERS event\n\n\nHow Far Have We Come?\nIn an historic election year\, OHS offers two Dualogues and one Monologue that let us look back  at a century of "progress" for women.\nCome for the Dualogues and Stay for the Dialogue! \nMelody Brooks\, Director/Dramaturg\nMelissa Attebery\, Producer\n\nRSVP: newper37@gmail.com\n \n\nHARRIET LOUISA CHILDE-PEMBERTON (c1853-1922) was an English author best known for her modernized fairy tales and children's books promoting Christian ideals.. Shattered Nerves is part of a collection Twenty Minutes!: Drawing Room Duologues\, published c1900 in which she offers a surprising view of modern womanhood\, particularly with the inclusion of a female MD offering common sense "therapy" in Shattered Nerves.\n\nEVELYN GLOVER (1874-c1941) began her writing career by with one-act plays demonstrating the relevance of the suffrage movement to working-class women. In Miss Appleyard’s Awakening  Mrs. Crabtree visits a fellow anti-suffragist and manages\, through her views that "a man is a man and a woman is a woman"\, to convert Miss Appleyard―but not in the way she intended!\n\nMARIE JENNEY HOWE (1870-1934) wrote her Antisuffrage Monologue for the drama group of the New York Woman’s Suffrage Party . In it\, she parodied anti-suffragist arguments that relied on stereotypes of female dependence\, irrationality\, and delicacy even as they also warned that women voters would exert too much power. Howe\, a Unitarian minister\, later founded Heterodoxy\, a group of women intellectuals and radicals in New York City’s Greenwich Village.\n\nON HER SHOULDERS was founded in 2012 to present rehearsed\, staged readings of plays by women from across the spectrum of time\, with contemporary dramaturgs contextualizing--and in some cases adapting--them for modern audiences. The program seeks to make it impossible to deny or ignore the 1\,000-year great tradition and value of women's contribution to the theatrical canon. OHS became a program of NPTC in August 2013 and is currently produced by Melissa Attebery and Melody Brooks.\n\nThe Play in Context\, the dramaturgical and scholarly presentation component to the program\, is sponsored in part by the League of Professional Theatre Women\, a non-profit organization promoting visibility and increasing opportunities for women in theatre since 1982.\n\n \n\n
