Life Without Instruction
5 Male, 3 Female
Sally Clark Price: $19.95
Based on a true story and a real trial, this presents a woman’s
struggle for freedom, identity and dignity
Artemisia Fentileshi’s father, the late-Renaissance painter Orazio Gentileschi, takes the unusual step of having his daughter trained in the art of painting under the instruction of his friend Agostino Tassi
Tassi rapes Artemisia, and is taken to trial by both Artemisia and Orazio, but - as usual - the person really on trial in this rape case is the women, who is politically humiliated and tortured
But this only strengths Artemisia’s determination to become an independent woman, artist and painter
“Sally Clark’s great talents as a playwright are her seemingly
effortless ability to shift from light to dark and her finely
tuned understanding of life’s rich ambiguities” ~ Toronto Star
