ABOUT THE PLAY:
The Mineola Twins explores women's roles, or what is expected of women, over four decades in American life, as seen through the eyes of "almost" identical twins, Myra and Myrna, from Mineola, New York. A provocative journey across American history, the play satirically asks what has changed for women over the progression of time?
