It deals with four generations of women in Twyla's family and features four women, plus Ervin. All three parts will be expanded into the eventual novel. Sarah Corr and David Woods are co-directors. Polly calls Twyla's Boy a truthful rather than autobiographical play. My sexual experiences, the floods, the intruder episode are the most truthful.
All writers embellish.
If you put life onstage as it is , it's probably going to be pretty boring because life is not structured like theater. I can't stay more than two or three days when I'm back there. Women there are treated as second-class citizens. Men will say things like, 'Honey, get me some coffee,' when the coffeepot is right next to them. And everybody has guns.
