Peterborough Theatre Guild presents Staged Reading - "Third" by Wendy Wasserstein

A staged reading of "Third", the final play written by the late Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Wendy Wasserstein. The drama focuses on the life of a female college professor during one academic year at a prestigious liberal arts college in New England, Laurie Jameson, and how her life and fundamental assumptions are challenged by an encounter with a student, Woodson Bull The Third. The professor and student have strongly divergent personal and political characteristics. Because of these differences, the professor accuses the student of plagiarism when he turns in an assignment that seems, to her, to be beyond his ability to produce. The play grapples with the issues of stereotyping and identity politics, as well as generational and family issues.
