SOMEONE MUST WASH THE DISHES

AN ANTI-SUFFRAGIST MONOLOGUE

Written by

MARIE JENNEY HOWE

The setting:  A proper middle class American parlor, 1912

	Michele LaRue

“MICHELE LaRUE performs often with New Jersey’s East Lynne Theater Company, which uniquely specializes in American plays of the late 18th and early 19th centuries.  Her credits with the ELTC include William Dean Howells’ Bride Roses, Susan Glaspell’s Suppressed Desires, and Gayle Stahlhuth’s adaptation of Henry James’ The Beast in the Jungle – all directed by Warren Kliewer.

“LaRue tours with Places Please, Act One (Kliewer’s vibrant ‘poems around and about theatres’), Someone Must Wash the Dishes, Eve’s Diary (adapted by Stahlhuth from the stories of Mark Twain), The Yellow Wallpaper – (Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s 1892 horror story), and a repertoire of short-story performances.  This month she’s playing Inga in Deborah Brevoort’s The Poetry of Pizza at Centenary Stage.  From late March through April she’ll perform Dishes, Eve, and Wallpaper in Illinois and St. Louis, and Dorothy Canfield Fisher’s The Bedquilt for the international conference of the American Quilter’s Society.

“LaRue is an active member of New Jersey Repertory Company, which specializes in developing and producing new scripts; and of the three major actors’ unions: Actors’ Equity Association, Screen Actors Guild, and AFTRA.”
