Wendy Wasserstein's Pulitzer Prize-winning The Heidi Chronicles is a poignant and poetic story about the Baby Boomer generation coming of age. Its iconic hero, Heidi Holland, is typical of many women born in the post-World War II era: She's intelligent, well educated and attempting to make it and have it all in a society that favors men. She watches her circle of friends move from the idealism and political radicalism of their college years through militant feminism and, eventually, back to the materialism and conservatism that they originally sought to reject. Heidi slowly comes to realize that liberation can be achieved through being true to oneself. Follow along on her path to the truth at Chicago's Prop Thtr courtesy of The Cuckoo's Theater Project.
