Good Lessons from Bad Girls

Instructed from childhood to be a “good girl” like the ever virtuous Eleanor Roosevelt, Dorothy wonders what might be on the other side of goodness. As she begins a journey from rebellion to reconciliation, she visits a series of infamous, disreputable women from different time periods and backgrounds. In seven vignettes, Dorothy takes away a lesson from each of seven fascinating women. By the play’s triumphant ending, she has gleaned wisdom for the likes of original sinner, Eve; the guilt-free Mae West; the opportunistic Emperor Wu; the image building Kathryn Kelley; and the litigious Elizabeth Freeman.
