Eight short plays, commissioned and developed as part of the Women
Centre Stage Festival, that together demonstrate the range, depth
and richness of women's writing for the stage. Selected by Sue
Parrish, Artistic Director of Sphinx Theatre, these plays offer a
wide variety of rewarding roles for women, and are perfect for
schools, youth groups and theatre companies to perform. How to Not
Sink by Georgia Christou looks at duty, love and dependency across
three generations of women. In Wilderness by April De Angelis, a
patient and her psychiatrist head into the wilderness to find out
how sane any of us really are. In Chloe Todd Fordham's The
Nightclub, three very different women at a gay nightclub in Orlando
are caught up in a terrifying hate crime. Fucking Feminists by Rose
Lewenstein is a fiercely funny investigation of what feminism
means, and what it has become. Winsome Pinnock's Tituba is a
one-woman show about Tituba Indian, the enslaved woman who played a
central role in the seventeenth-century Salem Witch Trials. In The
Road to Huntsville by Stephanie Ridings, a writer researching women
who fall in love with men on death row finds herself crossing the
line. White Lead by Jessica Sian explores the expectations and
responsibilities of being an artist and a woman. In What is the
Custom of Your Grief? by Timberlake Wertenbaker, an English
schoolgirl whose brother has been killed on active duty in
Afghanistan is befriended online by an Afghan girl. Sphinx Theatre

women in the arts through productions, conferences and research for
more than forty years.
