THE INSANITY OF MARY GIRARD by Lanie Robertson
The year is 1790. Mary Girard, wife of wealthy and prominent businessman, Stephen Girard, has been committed to the insanity ward of the Pennsylvania Hospital in Philadelphia after it was discovered that she was pregnant by another man. Trapped in the Tranquilizing Chair, Mary seeks counsel from a group of "furies" who show her the past, present, and even future events that may have contributed to her confinement. By the end of this haunting and highly theatrical piece, the audience is left to wonder if Mary is growing into her diagnosis, or if she was ever truly mad at all.
