Wendy Wasserstein's 1989 Pulitzer Prize-winning play chronicles the Glory Days of the feminist movement through the character of art historian Heidi Holland. Over a 25-year period -- from high-school in the mid-sixties through the "having-it-all" era of the late eighties -- the experiences of Heidi and her friends and lovers chart the transformative political and social changes of that exhilarating period.
