Women written by Carolyn Woosley.

renowned New Orleans Werlein family, is best known for her vigorous, colorful
and successful effort to save New Orleans’s slum-like French Quarter from
almost certain demolition before World War II, as well as for the belief that
she is, allegedly, the first woman to have flown in an airplane as a passenger.
The role of Elizebeth
will be read by Carolyn Woosley in Ms. Woosley’s premier acting performance. Joy Pace is Director and Producer. There will not be an intermission. Seating is limited.
