1. Wasserstein takes Heidi (and her audience) on a four-decade tour of the theory and practice of feminism in America, with Heidi as a sort of test subject. What does the play say about women and feminism? Mine the text for references, collect, organize, plan.
2. In Act I, scene 5, Scoop gets married and reveals to Heidi why he couldn’t ask her to be his wife. Why isn’t Heidi a viable wife? Do you agree with his assessment? (Does Wasserstein agree?)
3. Pick an important scene from the play and use it to read through one key theme/comment you believe The Heidi Chronicles makes. Use your research to support this reading by expanding the elements of the scene to incorporate other aspects of the play.
4. The words fulfillment/unfulfilled seem to be significant in this play. . . .
5. In Act II, scene 3, Heidi asks her longtime friend Susan, “Susie, do you ever think what makes you a person is also what keeps you from being a person?” (55). Hmm. Whatever could that mean in this context? (Heidi is sometimes the philosophical voice of the author.)
6. Though the play is mostly focused on/populated by female characters, the male roles in the play also reveal what it means to be masculine, or a man. What comment does Wasserstein make about men in this play? Try to be comprehensive and specific (rather than just saying that Scoop is a *****).
