Message: Life >Mechanics of society rule play: The scene opens on a dimly lit filing cabinet, a telephone switchboard, a typewriter and a cold iron door – as lifeless as the automatons that operate them. Machinal, Sophie Treadwell’s feminist expressionist play, opens on the stark setting of corporate America and the daily machinations of the robotic workers contrasted to the helpless longing of the play’s anti-heroine, Helen. The story follows the ordinary events of Helen’s life that ultimately lead her to kill her husband and face execution on the electric chair. http://www.oldgoldandblack.com
