Synopsis: | A look into the lives of five women who are over sixty-five and the pain such women endure trying to make a life for themselves in a youth-oriented society. Thus the title becomes a play on words as Fanny, the story-teller, talks of her friends and neighbors through a window. Fanny, after introducing the theme of the play through her comments and reminiscences, introduces a writer friend, an -actor friend, a neighbor relegated to a nursing home by her children and another neighbor just divorced, and discusses a magazine interview for an article about older people. | |||||

Synopsis: | A play about women who helped build the United States. Anne Hutchinson, Abigail Adams, Agelina Grimke, Elizabeth Cody Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, Emma Goldman, Bell-a Abzug are featured and there is a montage of slides with comment acknowledging the accomplishments of other women. Many incidents take place in a courtroom setting which serves as a connecting theme. An original song, "What Is a Woman?" begins and ends the show and, in order to bridge the span of time covered by the play, other original pieces and folk music are used. | |||||
