Miss Lulu Bett

Set in a small Wisconsin town, the play follows Lulu Bett, a woman viewed as a spinster who unexpectedly marries a charming but dishonest relative. After discovering her husband's bigamy, she returns home but defies societal expectations by refusing to succumb to shame. Instead, she seeks to redefine her life on her own terms. Celebrated for its realistic portrayal of women's struggles, the play was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1921 and is recognized for its significant contribution to theatrical realism.
