Five
Women Wearing the Same Dress by Alan
Ball |
 |
"All five actresses do
superb jobs of creating their characters. . . .a well-balanced ensemble
piece. Five Women has laughs and some very serious moments;
making for an enjoyable (if somewhat unsettling) two hours at the theatre.
It is well worth seeing as an example of what regional theatre can be —
fresh, personal, and honest."

Five Women . . . grapples with questions about the nature of
friendship and sexual relationships for generation which was born in the wake of
the sexual revolution and which has come of age in the era of AIDS. As
they watch two of their peers celebrate what looks to be a less than promising
union, five women and one man walk a tight rope between autonomy and
commitment. The struggle to support one another, while at the same time
striving to be more truthful than the examples set before them at this wedding
reception, is at the core of Five Women Wearing the Same Dress.
