Getting Out

Event flyer featuring a woman's silhouette against a yellow background.

Shoreline Community College Theatre presents Getting Out by Marsha Norman.

The play follows “Arlene” upon her release from prison, as she attempts to reintegrate into society. Having shed her rebellious past as “Arlie”, her present struggle is juxtaposed with vivid flashbacks of her youth. The story alternates between “Arlie’s” contentious relationships with prison officials and “Arlene’s” difficult reality, which includes an indifferent mother, a predatory ex-guard, a pimp ex-boyfriend, and a sympathetic neighbor. The play grapples with themes of identity, self-acceptance, and the systemic issues that individuals continue to face every day that impact the trajectory of their lives.
