'Top Girls' By Caryl Churchill

Abstract: 5 pages in length. Caryl Churchill's Top Girls set a precedent unlike any other feminist theatre production had heretofore accomplished; as such, this unparalleled approach created a combination of difficulties as well as unusual opportunities for the playwright while preparing the original production. With the critical acclaim inherent to this type of theatrical breakthrough, it is not surprising to find that Churchill's original production was paramount to the growing awareness of escalating gender issues in the early 1980s. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
