Abstract

This project is comprised of the script for a one-woman show dealing with the lives and careers of Beatrice Lillie, Dorothy Parker, Kay Swift, and Josephine Baker in the decade between 1920 and 1930. It is meant to explore the ways in which all four women crossed boundaries set on them by their gender and their professions, and both how they were defined and how they refused to be defined by societal expectations.
