WIT

wit

Edson's play Wit begins
with the main character,
Vivian Bearing (played
by Robin Clipsham),
entering an empty
stage, pushing an IV
(intravenous) pole.
She is dressed in two
hospital gowns (one with
the opening to the front,
the other to the back)
and a baseball hat. She
is thin, barefoot, and
hairless. She turns to
the audience and talks
to them directly, first
with a false sense of
pleasantry, then in her
more usual formal manner Her first line is “Hi. How are
you feeling today?” This line will be repeated throughout
the play by various characters, most times exemplifying
the undertone of the play, which is that even though
these words are spoken, their speakers do not listen to
or care about the answer.
