Scarlett O'Hara

I wrote yesterday about going to NY to see my friend's play called the Scarlett O'Hara Complex. Since a couple people commented that they would like to know what it is about I thought that I would do that today and put in a plug for my friend.

 

The play is about how women in the South, especially upper class women, are trained to be like Scarlett. To smile when we don't really want to, and to do all those traditional things that us Southern types are infamous for. The group of women in the play live in the perfect neighborhood, and have the "perfect" husband. They are friends with a woman who has caught her scum- bag husband cheating again, and they think she has gone crazy and is thinking about pulling a Clara Harris/Blance Taylor Moore on him. They end of calling the man's mother who drinks lots of Margaritas. That is when things really get funny. It is a comedy set in the town I live in, and it is really funny.

 

It will be performed at Theater Row (theaterrow.org) on 42nd street in NY for the next couple of weeks. I am so excited to get to go to see it! :Clap-Hands:

It sounds like a southern verison of Desperate Housewives. :D

 

Hope your friend's play is a huge success. Just getting it produces is quite an accomplishment!!!
