Trifles

Based on an actual murder case Susan Glaspell reported for the Des Moines News in 1916, this one-act play represented an early exploration of gender relationships in a time when women often were considered to be mere 'trifles.' The play is considered a groundbreaking work in feminist literature and is often included in American drama anthologies.Recorded at The Invisible Studios, West Hollywood, in April 2011.Adapted and directed for radio by Rosalind AyresProducing Director: Susan Albert LoewenbergAn L.A.
