Profile

What starts off as a pure exercise in style—a fantastical dinner party featuring costumed semi-famous women throughout history—ends in a very personal indictment of Thatcherism (via a contemporary corporate woman's family troubles) that resounds powerfully during the campaign of our very own Iron Lady, Hillary Clinton. If timeliness and genius artistry aren't enough, how about Marisa Tomei and Martha Plimpton, disappearing into multiple, starkly different roles with convincing swagger and empathy? Every wave of feminist can find something to love in this revival of Caryl Churchill's 1982 three-acter.
