Ergebnis für "Three Women" in Schauspiel & Theater

Historical characters reach across time to tell poignant stories about their lives in the play Three Strong Western Women. A Mormon handcart pioneer, a Lutheran missionary, and an Apache warrior woman each describe a life of struggle through tragedy. Emma Lee was the 17th plural wife of John D. Lee, who was executed for his role in the massacre of settlers in a wagon train at Mountain Meadows in Utah. She did many heroic things during her turbulent life, including saving lives in a tragically ill-timed caravan and running the famous Lee’s Ferry.

Together, these three one-acts demonstrate the power and skill of a writer who understands the complex issues faced by women and has used his talent to create these unforgettable portraits. The actors are the original cast members who premiered these plays at the Circle Repertory Company, and this recording captures their electrifying performances.
