“A pugnacious, tender and gloriously funny new play about how necessary bravery is.”
— The New York Times, March 2, 2017
Running Time: 85 minutes, no intermission
Galloping through forty years in a New England women's college, BULL IN A CHINA SHOP follows Mary Woolley and her partner Jeannette Marks as they reform and revolutionize women's education at the height of the suffrage movement. As evolving ambitions and desires strain the couple's relationship, this fast-paced comedy with whiplash dialogue and a modern spin looks at how we change the world, how the world changes us, and how we try to grow old together.
