Synopsis: | A Polish Catholic housewife, against her will, is forced to shelter an escapee from the Warsaw Ghetto. As the two struggle to come to terms with themselves, and their prejudices, they journey toward mutual trust and respect. Although framed within the era of the Holocaust, the focus of this play is on the women, and on exploring issues similar to many faced today. This is not a Holocaust story, but one of survival. . . or not. | |||||

Memories are triggered as Zelda transforms a Bartender into all the people (male as well as female) who have played a part in shaping her self-image, and insights are gained. Both Zelda and the Barman come to understand their lives in new ways. | |||||

Parts other: | - | |||||
Notes: | No real properties should be used in this piece. The handling of any prop called for in the script (such as the gift box, the t.v. remote, the wine glass, and especially the yo-yo) should be mimed. In this manner, the audience is free to let their imagination be dazzled by the brilliance of GERTRUDE's artistic display. | |||||
Synopsis: | Gertrude stops by Amy's (Gertrude's daughter's) home to drop off a gift for Katelin (Gertrude's granddaughter/ Amy's daughter.) The gift is a yo-yo: "Something to keep her life on track. Reliable, yet small enough to fit in the palm of her hand." During the resulting interaction between Gertrude and Amy, life lessons are learned, and relationships are re-examined. | |||||
