Full Summary: A Women’s Awareness Month Event, co-sponsored by the Schools of History, Technology, and Society and Literature, Communication, and Culture; the Women’s Resource Center; and WST

Join us for a talk and discussion with Margaret Edson, the Pulitzer Prize winning author of Wit. The play takes audiences through the final hours of a professor of 17th-century literature who is dying of stage-four metastatic ovarian cancer. A reception will follow the event.

The play was adapted for television in 2001 and will be running on Broadway again this year. All are welcome to attend a screening of Wit on Monday, Feb. 27.

 

This event is part of Women’s Awareness Month, co-sponsored by the Schools of History, Technology, and Society and Literature, Communication, and Culture; the Women’s Resource Center; and WST.
