Women’s words

TAKE ELEVEN monologues by 11 women and put them
together on the 11th day of the 11th month and you have
Theatre West Van‘s opening of the award-winning play
Talking With.

First performed in 1982, the play offers a glimpse into the
lives of what co-director Sheilan Dove calls, “eleven very
different parsonalities from all walks of life. They are all very
intriguing.”

Perhaps just as intriguing, the work was penned under the
seudonym Jane Martin and, according to Dove, ‘‘ro one
as ever been able to find out who it is — whether it’s a she

ora they.”

_ critic Martin Millerchip supervises the four directors involved
in the production while editorial staffer Tina Gilbertson per-
forms one of the monologues.

Millerchip hopes the play will challenge its audience.

He advises that while there is much comedy in Talking
With, there is also a lot of pain.

“4 think Martin is asking the audience to accept the pain
and not close it out. If we withdraw from pain we lose our
capacity to love and be loved,” says Millerchip.

Performances open on Thursday, Nov. 11 with refresh-
ments and drinks celebrating the inauguration of the com-
pany’s new performance facility, Argyle House at 1564
Argyle Ave., West Vancouver.

Shows run Nov. 11-13, 17-20. Tickets, $5. Info: 926-2228.
