1 what a young wife ought to know
2 Supporting the arts, locally. Each year, through various donations and sponsorships, we are committed to helping our local communities. We re proud to be the 2017/2018 season sponsor of The Grand Theatre.
3 Welcome. The McManus Stage offers such a unique opportunity: up close encounters with plays that were meant to be experienced in close proximity. Now more than ever we need to hear the voices of Canadian women: this insightful play from Hannah Moscovitch explores behaviours and attitudes of days gone by, which have an unsettling resonance today. The play is a stunning articulation of her ability to combine dark subject matter with biting humour. This production comes to us from 2b theatre a theatre company from the east coast known for its crisp, stylized productions. One of the joys of this intimate space is to invite guests from afar to bring their stories to us. Welcome to Hannah and 2b s wonderful imaginations. dennis garnhum artistic director

5 PLAYWRIGHT S NOTES Do publish these letters...they are so amazing. Virginia Woolf to Margaret Llewelyn Davis A few years ago I picked up a copy of Dear Dr. Stopes: Sex in the 1920s, a compilation of the letters sent to the famous British birth control advocate, Dr. Marie Stopes. Men and women, often in dire straights and desperate to find out how to stop having children, wrote to Dr. Stopes querying about birth control. The voices of the men and women in these letters were distinct from anything I had read before. The letters are explicit about unmentionable topics: sex, desire, adultery, childbirth, and birth control. The style of the letters is stark, hilarious, and unflinching, and the vocabulary is amazingly frank and sexual. None of the literature of the time F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, T.S Eliot, and Virginia Woolf document or even mention what people s sex lives were like in the first decades of the twentieth century. To me, the letters felt like a voyeuristic glimpse into what life was like before birth control. What a Young Wife Ought to Know is loosely inspired by the Dear Doctor Stopes letters, as well as by another book of similar letters published in 1915, titled Maternity: Letters From Working Women and edited by Margaret Llewelyn Davis (another reformer of the day). I have included phrases and turns-of-phrase lifted directly from the letters in the play. hannah moscovitch LIISA REPO-MARTELL AND DAVID PATRICK FLEMMING. PHOTO BY TIMOTHY RICHARD.
