Trifles premiered on August 8, 1916 at the Wharf Theater in Province town, MA. This one act play was based on a murder trial that Susan Glaspell covered as a young reporter in Des Moines, Iowa.

Using careful timing, Glaspell delivers subtle revelations that draw the audience and the reader into this play. She definitely intended to sting the conscience of her audience and challenge their perceptions of justice and morality, while also focusing on the different experiences that men and women might have to the exact same objective fact or event. The play raises some interesting questions. Does justice change with perspective? If so, is it possible to handle it fairly?

Since it’s first production in 1916 Trifles has become one of the most anthologized works in American theater history and is frequently cited as one of the great masterpieces of American theater. And It is now rightfully considered a masterpiece of the early feminist movement.

Later in her career, Glaspell also retold this play as the short story A Jury of her Peers.

This is a wonderful play that was once widely known. It shouldn’t linger as a hidden gem, and I encourage you to read this play and then share it with your friends.

4. How does the play function as a commentary on men and women, and the divisions between their lives?

5. Why do the women find the evidence instead of the men?

6. What does this fact reveal about what is important to women and what is important to men?

7. Why do Mrs. Hale and Mrs. Peters suppress the evidence they find?

Identify two specific ethical standards from the NASW Code of Ethics that you think might become the greatest ethical challenge in addressing the racial disproportionately.

Explain why you chose those specific standards. For example, the most recently revised Code contains information on texting clients, electronic communication, Facebook, etc., which may present ethical issues for social workers who use social media.

In your own words, define the term ethical “gray area.” For each of the two challenges you identified above, given an example of an ethical “gray area,” and develop at least one recommendation for how a social worker might handle such a situation.
