Women and Wallace is a remarkable first play, written when the author was eighteen, and produced in New York as part of the 7th Annual Young Playwrights Festival at Playwrights Horizons.
It will be performed at Asheville Community Theatre’s 35Below through April 19th. Show times are Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 pm, and Sundays at 2:30 pm.
Fast moving, and very funny, the play traces the growing up of a young man who must deal both with his mother’s suicide and with the sometimes unsettling attentions of the various females who come into his life.
“…a deeply felt play with an original and impressive comic edge. Sherman’s is indeed a fresh, remarkably mature voice.” —NY Daily News.
“WOMEN AND WALLACE is without doubt one of the strongest one-acts to come along in a long time.
The play is startling, fresh and wise in its verbal dexterity and its knowledge of characterizations.” —BackStage.
