A 1982 play by Jane Martin composed of eleven ten-minute monologues, each featuring a different woman who talks about her life.
The play includes the pieces, “Fifteen Minutes,” “Scraps,” “Clear Glass Marbles,” “Audition,” “Rodeo,” “Twirler,” “Lamps,” “Handler,” “Dragons,” “French Fries,” and “Marks.”
Talking With deals with the personal ordeals of each female character.
Many of them are very touching; a few are even intensely emotional.
However, some are also comical.
Even the funny ones, however, have an underlying depth to them that gives a sensitive insight into each of the characters involved.
The ladies, all local talent, include Kay Thomas, Sarah Bush, Tiffany Wolfe, Bree Bennett,
Rachel Walsingham, Keegan Welch, Trish Payne, Vanita Turner, Victoria Kelly, Mil Cox, and
Magdalene Hinson and will cover a wide spectrum of life and age from the fading rodeo star in
“Rodeo” to the young aspiring actress in “Audition”, there is much tenderness and diversity in
the subject matter involved in the play. Idiosyncratic characters amuse, move and frighten,
always speaking from the depths of their souls.
Show dates are Friday, June 2 & Saturday, June 3, 2023 at 7:00 pm. For more information or to
