Excerpts from the
Dramatist's Play
Service website:
The Heidi Chronicles
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, the Tony Award, the New York Drama Critics
Circle Award, the Outer Critics Circle Award, the Drama Desk Award, the
Hull-Warriner Award and the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize. A significant
and celebrated play, which was first presented by Off-Broadway's
Playwrights Horizons and went on to become a long-run Broadway success.
Funny, touching, and written with rare grace and sensitivity, the play
is a moving examination of the progress of a generation, from the
socially and politically activist sixties to the success-oriented
eighties—a time during which the status of American women underwent
profound, and sometimes unsettling, change.
The Story
Comprised of a series of interrelated scenes, the play traces the coming
of age of Heidi Holland, a successful art historian, as she tries to
find her bearings in a rapidly changing world. Gradually distancing
herself from her friends, she watches them move from the idealism and
political radicalism of their college years through militant feminism
and, eventually, back to the materialism that they had sought to reject
in the first place.
