THEATER REVIEW: ‘Griswold’ plays at Bridge Street Theatre through Aug. 18
Bridge Street Theatre in Catskill, N.Y. Written by Angela J. Davis, directed by M. Burke Walker. In 1978 the Supreme Court brought in a decision favoring Estelle Griswold and the Planned Parenthood of New Haven’s decision to offer contraceptives and advice on a woman’s right to determine her sexual future and her right to abstain from childbirth. A long-ignored historic battle, it led the way to Roe v. Wade and all that followed for same-sex rights as well. This play tells Griswold’s story and documents her long history of standing up for human rights. It covers nearly 60 years in a brief 103 minutes with a 10-minute coda that is little short of thrilling. Landmarks often go unexamined and unrewarded, but this play does all that it can to rectify that situation while also entertaining us beautifully.
