Experience the excellence.
Out Front On Main is back at it in 2011 presenting Jane Martin’s Talking With—January Thirteenth to Thirtieth, Twenty Eleven. The play consists of nine monologues spoken by nine different women. And they aren’t all talking about their vaginas this time like that other all woman monologue show. In fact, Talking With is a poignant study of love, loneliness, and obsession. Laughter mingles with a deep perpetual sadness throughout the play, as Martin’s characters address the value of eccentricity, as well as society’s dismissive nature towards it.

Get a behind the scenes look at our first read-through for January’s all-woman show: “Talking With…”
Dec 8th

Talking With… by Jane Martin is a delightful set of emotional monologues. This play shows some in-depth emotion on various topics. Simply speaking, this play seems to show many lessons that were learned by each of the
women portrayed in the scenes. The dramatic question is somewhat different from other plays. That means there seems to be a lesson to be taught rather than a question to be answered. Each monologue has its own topic and each character must teach the lesson that she once learned.
Each of the ten monologues has only one character. Each of the women in this play is very well characterized by both their dress and their speech/delivery manner. Because of the way in which each woman delivers her lines you can determine how well she taught herself and the audience the lesson. Each of them relates a very painful lesson that she had learned earlier in her life. It seems that each of them is relating the tale of life well learned by convincing themselves as well as the audience that life is worth living.
