As Adele and her teenage daughter Zoey pack for their move, items they pull from trunks and boxes—a bikini, a bumper sticker, an infant’s never-worn shirt—propel Adele into memories of the 1970s women’s movement in her home town of Wichita, Kansas. She is stunned to learn that her 16-year-old daughter is not only unaware of how much happened in that tumultuous decade, but oblivious to how recently won many women’s achievements have been. This plays has been adapted from the book Radiating Like a Stone: Wichita Women and the 1970s Feminist Movement, by Myrne Roe, which was published in late fall 2011. Its contributors include noted Wichita leaders, among them Nola Foulston, Jo Ann Pottorff, poet Anita Skeen (from whose poem the title is derived), and dozens more leaders in Wichita’s artistic, social, political, and academic communities, as well as “ordinary” women who did extraordinary things.

Directed by Gina Austin-Fresh.
