The Insanity of Mary Girard
In 1790, Mary Girard is committed to an asylum. After Mary become pregnant by another man, her husband had her declared legally insane. Now, Mary sits in a chair as the "furies" dance around and impersonate people from her past. By the end of this haunting and highly theatrical piece, she has grown rather convincingly into her diagnosis.
