Nowadays
by George Middleton September 27 - October 26 |
|
What Do Women Want?  Written by a leading voice in the women’s suffrage movement, Nowadays pits a head-of-the-household kind of father with a daughter who wants to support herself. But when his wife reveals she has a secret career of her own, the complacent world of the whole family is turned upside down. From the hide-bound patriarch to his iconoclastic daughter, from the rabble-rousing newspaperman to the quiet girl next door, everyone gets a comeuppance in this smart and funny look at the conventions that bind us all. Far more than a mere political appeal, Nowadays is a meaningful look at our self-imposed limitations and our best possibilities. |
