#1Woman Empowering Play, Skit, or One Act
Posted: 2/17/09 at 11:04amI am looking for women empowering plays, skits, or one acts that will be performed at a college level. Unfortunatly, the Vagina Monologues is out of the question. Thank you for your help!
(Martha Graham from a letter to Agnes de Mille) "There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening That is translated through you into action, And because there is only one of you in all time, This expression is unique. If you block it, It will never exist through any other medium And be lost. The world will never have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is, Nor how valuable it is, Nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours, clearly and directly, To keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep open and aware Directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open. No artist is pleased. There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer, divine dissatisfaction, A blessed unrest that keeps us marching And makes us more alive than others."

I'm trying to remember what we did when I was in college because we always tried to have strong female pieces. American Beauty, Water Babies, Parallel Lives, and Trojan Women all come to mind but beyond that I can't remember.
Here's the link to the school if you want to see what they're up to this year and get some ideas

We must have different Gods. My God said "do to others what you would have them do to you". Your God seems to have said "My Way or the Highway".
