Restaurant Scene in Top Girls

At Top Girls' Top Girls (TG) restaurant scene, there is a work promotion centering on Marlene, which is purely a woman, and there is no male actor in the whole play. The importance of the five guests she chose to celebrate promoted her diligence and sacrifice to reach her destination. In this scene we use past women and emphasize women's struggle of all ages, including women's experiences and working women's themes. Maternity is an important factor for most women.

In the first play of Top Girls, the characters of the first acting (1604 pages) in the past 1200 years are symbols of women who succeeded in various eras and places. In this scenario, Marlene, who was promoted to the top of the top-ranking female employment agency recently, hosts a dinner celebrated with her for other women who succeeded in history. Guests include the 9th century Pope, the Isabella bird of the 19th century Scottish women, the niece of the 13th century Japanese emperor, later Buddhist nuns, silly grets, heartfelt farmers. In 16th century paintings, women portrayed the fight against demons of hell; and a faithful wife patient Griselda played a role in Jeffrey Joe's Canterbury Tales. Each of these women has something in common and ignores the success in the male-dominated world.

The first scene of the show shows the real top girls before the feminist movement. It reveals the obstacles they have to overcome and the liberties of today's women and the obvious. All the women in the first scene were female, suffering to a certain extent, succeeded in becoming a great woman without going to other women. They succeeded in the world of men they live in. This is the opposite of Merlin's successful approach. Marlene sacrificed other women

At the beginning of the script you will be introduced to the main character Marlene, the hero. Top girl: a woman who succeeded in her career. During the game, Ma Lin was at the top of the career and she noticed that she had traveled a long way from the working class to the middle class, but she paid some sacrifice to gain her status It was. First, she handed the child to her sister Joyce (page 80). Next, she seems to have sacrificed her life. She did invite women in history as a real friend did not seem to be invited to dinner. Marlene also has a hard time finding men who can accept her as a successful woman and will not turn her into a "small woman" (p. 83)
