Frederick M Winship (UPI) writes regarding MAIDEN'S PROGENY, "It was high time that someone wrote a play about Mary Cassatt, the only American member of the original Impressionist coterie of artists. Le Wilhelm, has met the challenge with flying colors with MAIDEN'S PROGENY." This intellectually entertaining drama takes the audience to Cassatt's chateau outside Paris on a spring afternoon when Wynford Johnston comes calling uninvited. What follows is living discussion, of two very head strong individuals, that ultimately results in an understanding and growth in both characters. Never falling into the category of a lecture, this play provides insight and understanding of the art and times at the dawning of the 20th century.
"Their [Cassatt and Johnston] give and take is so rich in ideas and emotions that the play reaches its denouement with its audience wanting more. No greater compliment can be paid a theatrical work."-UPI
FEE: $75 per performance.
