Women Laughing Alone with Salad
by Sheila Callaghan
Synopsis
What’s on the menu for Meredith, Tori, and Sandy, the three women in Guy’s life?
Healthy lifestyles, upward mobility, meaningful sex?
Or self-loathing and distorted priorities?
Inspired by the strangely ubiquitous advertising trend of picturing attractive women blissfully eating salad, award-winning playwright Sheila Callaghan breaks all the rules of our image-obsessed culture in Women Laughing Alone With Salad .
This raw comedy is served with a side of feminism and tossed with audacious imagery, biting social critique, and devastating humor.
Press Reviews
"Callaghan takes a razor dipped in acid to slash through the thickets of the impossible standards of appearance and behavior men impose upon women — and that women then impose on themselves and each other."
— The Chicago Tribune
