Description
A haunting and incisive piece, "The Yellow Wallpaper" is a classic short story based on the real-life events of its author, Charlotte Perkins Gilman. Published in 1892, the story tackles themes of social oppression and dismissal of women at the time, and illustrates how those social attitudes insidiously seep into the daily life of the story's narrator, and drive her to madness.
This stage adaptation by Greg Oliver Bodine features "A full-length, solo, one-act from the short story by Charlotte Perkins Gilman. Originally produced as part of the Playground Development Series at Manhattan Theatre Source, NYC, March 2009 (available at New Play Exchange). 'A dynamic stage production of the short story…an absorbing portrait that delves into the tormented mind of a woman who is trapped in a world she cannot escape.' –Dr. N. J. Stanley, Coordinator, Women’s & Gender Studies Program, Lycoming College, PA.'"
