Playwright Marsha Norman Talks About Gender Inequity in the Theatre

Women & Hollywood: "Marsha Norman is one of our best known female playwrights. Her play ‘night Mother won a Pulitzer Prize in 1983, and she has also written the book for the musicals The Secret Garden and The Color Purple.
She recently went out on a limb and talked about the gender inequity in the theatre world. This piece, Not There Yet, was published in American Theatre and is now online and must be read."
