Nancy Manocherian's the cell theatre and off the WALL productions in Pittsburgh present the World Premiere of “What Kind of Woman” by Abbe Tanenbaum directed by Artistic Director Kira Simring. When aging women’s rights activist and lifetime ‘collector’, Nora (Virginia Wall Gruenert), gets a final opportunity to reconnect with her estranged son, she hires personal organizer Anne (Abbe Tanenbaum) to whip her apartment into shape for his visit. But letting go of the past to make space for the present isn’t always straightforward. The play is inspired by Tanenbaum's own experience working as a personal organizer in New York City, and the the letters unearthed from women seeking abortions in the 1970’s.
