Beskrivelse

"Emily Mann is one of our most urgently engaging, provocative and significant American playwrights."--Joyce Carol Oates "Both as a socially conscious melodrama which arouses strong outrage in the viewer and as a valuable history lesson with contemporary relevance, Mrs. Packard

is informative, lively and engrossing." -Talkin' Broadway "Elizabeth Packard emerges as a vibrant, passionate force of nature."--The New York Times Illinois, 1861: Without proof of insanity, Elizabeth Packard is committed by her husband to an asylum. Based on historical events, Emily Mann's play tells of one woman's struggle to right a system gone wrong in this winner of the Kennedy Center Fund for New American Plays Award.
