The Mineola Twins

Pulitzer Prize-winner Paula Vogel has an incisive political comedy with “Woolly” written all over it. This hilarious romp across the Eisenhower, Nixon and Reagan/Bush years is seen through the eyes of “the good twin” Myra (conservative and stacked!) and “the bad twin” Myrna (radical activist and flat as a pancake!) as they battle over feminism, Vietnam, sexuality, family values, and lovers both male and female. Wildly theatrical and ultimately very moving, The Mineola Twins examines the underlying schizophrenia of American politics and its impact on our daily lives. A tour de force for five breathless, quick-changing actors, it raises provocative questions about the soul of our nation.

Presented by the Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company.
