Two housewives in the 1900s get together for tea to bond over having hysteria. A haunting actuality overshadowed by ridiculous comedy. A commentary on the treatment of women in the 1900s, this ten-minute play completely masks the emotions of the characters behind a strange, sparkly, pink, girly, hazy facade of "this is fine."

Marie: Ellie Forman Vidaver • Cassandra: Naija Vega
