    SELDOM IS HEARD

    CA...
    ST OF CHARACTERS
    IVAN- 20's - 30's
    A strapping, young man, dressed in a faded buttoned up work shirt and jeans, wearing a kerchief that covers his hair. He totters unsteadily. We hope he won't tip over. Whatever happened to make him this way, there are no outward scars.

    HANNAH - 20's -30's
    Hannah is a plain looking woman, perhaps large-sized. She wears a buttoned up shirt, covering a tank top beneath it, and jeans. Hannah carries herself with a familiar caregiver's energy, tired but in a groove of well-practiced cheerfulness.

    MARILYN - 30's - 40's
    With one glance, you can tell she's one of those women who made sure her home was spotless before she left it this morning.
    Marilyn's hair is perfect and she sports a pink feminine suit with matching purse,fit for the many cosmetics it must contain. You just know her car is pink.

    SETTING:
    Two chairs signifying a front porch of a modest house in the suburbs.

    SYNOPSIS: Hannah has quite a bit on her plate nowadays. Her husband, Ivan, has returned from his tour of duty in Afghanistan with an I.E.D.- caused brain injury. The term "supporting our troops" seems to have a different meaning now that he's home. Ivan's noisy and unpredictable behavior on his own front porch irks Marilyn, president of the local Neighborhood Restoration Association (NRA), who insists Ivan be put in a "special place," in order to keep up the local morale. Recognizing the war on terror has to also be fought on the home front, Hannah and Ivan choose to reenter mainstream society and credit Marilyn for her bright idea.

    The Women of the Stockyards features readings of 7 plays about women who worked in the Chicago Stockyards on 4 dates. On March 5, 6, and 26, at 7 pm, readings will be at Cafe Ballou, 939 N. Western, Chicago, Illinois, and on March 28 at 7, at Royal George Gallery in Chicago. A donation of $5 is suggested.

    Considered the 8th Wonder of the World in the late 19th century, the Chicago Stockyards is a place where anything can happen – so, of course, in Nancy's play, Rosie wants to defy her mother’s plans for her and join in the excitement.
