Plays for two women — a distinct genre: plays for two F/F. Friends, sisters, colleagues, strangers in one train car — two female voices in a living dialogue. Chitacle has assembled a collection of original F/F plays for two under CC BY 4.0.
Why plays for two F/F are a rare genre
In Russian dramaturgy most texts are written with a male "protagonist." Female dialogue as a self-contained unit — is a rarity. Chitacle deliberately made the F/F genre a full-fledged part of the repertoire: dozens of original plays in which the scene is held by two female voices.
What these plays are about
- Friends a meeting after a long separation.
- Sisters old family stories.
- Mother and daughter a generational dialogue.
- Colleagues work tension crossing into the personal.
- Rivals without a man-object, an argument about something else.
- Strangers a chance meeting, an unexpected conversation.
How to read on Chitacle
In the Dressing Room leave email and check the box. If the preferences indicate a partner of the same sex (for women — a woman), Chitacle will pick a play for two F/F and a female partner. At the appointed time the curtain parts.
This is a format of partner reading of two women — for those who want a quiet, literary, non-confrontational evening.
Who this suits
- Female friends who want an unusual format of meeting.
- Couples for whom this is part of shared life.
- Women looking for a female audience for their voice.
- Actresses and drama school students — for practice.
- All adult women who value literary encounters.
