"Trifles" by Susan Glaspell.

The play "Trifles" was a different kind of play and was quite entertaining.  I had a hard time grasping the overall meaning of the play though.  In my opinion the theme behind this play was: don't look to deep because sometimes what we are looking for is right under our nose.  What I found extremely ironic was that while the "law professionals" were roaming about trying desperately to find evidence that would point to the murder, the wives were the ones who actually solved the case be nosing around her sewing equipment.

    With that said, reading what you have to say, I am glad I didn't read it.
