You are invited for a (free) talk and reading of one of our favorite stories, The Yellow Wallpaper. Our first ever Virtual Salon will feature our return to The Yellow Wallpaper, a reading of Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s 1892 short story with which Scoundrel & Scamp launched their inaugural season in October 2017. The story follows the slow, chilling unraveling of a woman suffering both from a so-called “hysterical tendency” -- and from its prescribed cure. |

This salon will feature The Yellow Wallpaper, a reading of Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s 1892 short story with which Scoundrel & Scamp launched their inaugural season in October 2017. The story follows the slow, chilling unraveling of a woman suffering both from a so-called “hysterical tendency” -- and from its prescribed cure. It calls audience attention to gender dynamics and mental health, as well as the dangers of confinement: something we may recognize all too well in the present moment.
Claire Marie Mannle is our reader, and is joined by scholar Maria Celis to enrich our understanding of the world of The Yellow Wallpaper.
The event will run a little more than an hour.
Best enjoyed by Scoundrels ages 12+.
S&S VIRTUAL SALON WILL BE A CASUAL EVENT, STREAMED LIVE VIA YOUTUBE,
FOOD AND DRINK WILL BE BYOB.
Tickets are FREE, donations welcome! |
