The
Radburn Players present Great Bellied Women in Fair Lawn, New Jersey on October 20th. In
Great Bellied Women, widow Agnes Moulsworth, a respected midwife, and her
high-spirited daughter Margery return from a successful delivery to interview a
prospective apprentice, the pious Mistress Jane Cobbe, and the riotous laughs
ensue! This thirty-minute comedic period piece illuminates the peculiar
practices of Renaissance childbirth, while celebrating the bond of women rising
above their oppression in this sacred exclusively female arena, the Elizabethan
birthing chamber. The Radburn Players have been continually producing shows for
over eighty years! To learn more about this historic company, visit www.radburnplayers.com.
