The Early Girl

Details

Missi Pyle and Mary Beth Peil in Number One, the short based on The Early Girl.

Based on my play, The Early Girl shows the journey of a bright young woman who is backed into a corner and turns to prostitution for a solution she believes is temporary. She learns that prostitution is a cycle of punishment that takes a world of good to break. And that world finally presents itself in this brothel with her fellow working-women in the mountains of Idaho.

It’s a comedy. It’s very funny, and it has a happy ending . . . in the Chekovian sense.
