"Mary Haines is a nice girl. Nice house, nice family, nice life. When a vicious little gold-digger hooks her talons into Mary's man, frocks, friendships and fidelity fly. Undone by the easy mouths of a troupe of adder-fanged New York socialites, Mary lets down her hair and turns the tables. Odious harpies. Brazen hussies. Tittle-tattlers. These women gossip and gloat, then gossip all over again, not caring about the consequences. These are truly the ladies who lunch, but who lunch on each other. Sex, sin and the city. A cunning little comedy unfolds into the quintessential theatrical catfight, with dialogue so snappy it could have been written by a hairdresser."
The Women was written over 70 years ago, and sounds surprisingly up to date in a modern world. It's currently playing at The Silo Theatre, and I'm hoping to catch it as it's had good reviews.
