Synopsis "Two Plays"

"Two Plays" contain the memories of ten year old Shirley, the daughter of Jake and Dorothy. She sees the two magnificent women, Margie and Cassie Marie as her hero's and views with sadness how they are treated by the good people of Roselea Gap. Young Shirley learns the crippling effects racism and sexism have on a human life and cannot see the difference in white and black, madonna and whore. She watches the respectable men in Roselea use and then discard women. She sees how women of color are treated far worse than the men's wives. Shirley learns at an early age, to trust her feelings and not the ones of the small minded townspeople around her, not even the ones in her own family. Shirley's love and fascination for Cassie Marie's family and Margie's tiny babies does not comprehend color or differences, only people that she loves and admires, more so than the religious, christian and prejudice citizens in the small town of Roselea Gap.
