Based on the short stories of American literary icon, Dorothy Parker, A Certain Lady explores the heart of a woman in the 1920’s.
Through five interwoven stories, the play examines a woman of wit living in the Jazz Age and her relationships with men, whiskey and the waltz. Dry, dark and sarcastic, A Certain Lady says what we wish we could at a dinner party and what we never should say on the telephone.
Directed by Greg Karvellas and performed by award-winning actress and member of The Mechanicals Collective, Emily Child, A Certain Lady is an unsentimental, painfully funny and unromantic look at romance, taxi rides and disobedient garters…
