This play revolves around the premise of a murder mystery. Mr. Wright was killed and Peters is trying to find out who the killer is. Everyone thinks it's his wife at first, but they don't have evidence. The men trying to solve the case tell the women (their wives) not to worry about it and that they should be thinking about nicer (less important) things. The women are upstairs and find a bird that was killed the same way Mr. Wright was, which is evidence to support the wife as the murderer. The women hide it because the men don't take them seriously. This play shows how women were oppressed back in this time; they were not taken seriously by men at all.
There are a few scenes between the women that are interesting, but taken out of context, I don't know how they would be.
