ABOUT THE PLAY:
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. “A pugnacious, tender and gloriously funny new play. Bryna Turner makes an immensely auspicious professional playwriting debut […] Bull in a China Shop is passionate, joyous and radiant with life!” - The New York Times.
