Cast (roles for 5 female identifying people:

WOOLLEY – Mary. The swagger of a gunslinger buttoned into an ankle length dress; a confident and caring partner to Marks. 
MARKS – Jeannette. A moody and fitful writer and partner, an enigmatic teacher; Woolley’s former student and current partner, ten years Woolley’s junior.
DEAN WELSH – A tight-lipped New England type. Woolley’s subordinate but Marks’ superior.
PEARL – The president of a secret society of fangirls of the relationship between Marks and Woolley, Marks’ obsessively devoted student. 
FELICITY – Marks’ roommate in a house off-campus named Sweet Pea. A professor in the Philosophy Department.

A note about casting:
This is an excavation of queer history, a history that has been buried and hidden and kept from us. It’s also a queering of history, a look at past events through a contemporary gaze. Queering history entails making room for the people who have been routinely denied a place in the narrative. There are no white men in this play, but it should not be filled entirely with white women either. This play is filled with purposeful anachronisms. That’s part of the point. This is a startlingly contemporary play.
