  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  Marlene hosts a dinner party in a London restaurant to celebrate her promotion to managing director of Top Girls Employment Agency. At its face, it’s a simple enough premise, but to say that her guest list is a little unusual is an understatement. 
   
  Arriving for dinner are Isabella Bird (1831-1904), the adventurous traveler; Lady Nijo (born 258), the mediaeval courtesan who became a Buddhist nun and traveled on foot through Japan; Dull Gret who, as Dulle Griet in a Bruegel painting, led a crowd of women on a charge through hell; Pope Joan, the transvestite early female pope; and, last but not least, Patient Griselda, an obedient wife out of Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales.
   
  The play reveals the stories of all five women, as well as the impending crisis in Marlene’s own life. A classic of contemporary theater, Churchill’s play is seen as a landmark for a new generation of playwrights. It was premiered by the Royal Court in 1982.
