О мероприятии:
The play is a collection of diary entries of a young woman who appears to be suffering from postpartum depression. Her husband-who is also her doctor- isolates her in a country house, intending to prescribe a rest cure for what he calls "a temporary nervous depression—a slight tendency to hysteria," a diagnosis common enough for women of that time. Locking her in the children's room of the house, he forbids her any creative work and imposes on her a strict diet and medication, as well as the use of electrotherapy. He also deprives her of contact with all her family members, even her baby.
