This is Lit Podcast #4- The 7 Stages of Grieving (Characters) - a podcast by This is Lit Podcast

The one where we discuss the characters from The 7 Stages of Grieving.

Focus Questions

1. Do you think Enoch and Mailman intended the audience to develop an emotional connection to The Woman?

2. What problematic cycles do the characters get stuck in during the play? Why do you think Enoch and Mailman decided to have the other characters demonstrate the other issues that affect Aboriginals?

3. Do you think the fact that we don’t actually hear from any character other than the woman affects our ability to empathise with those that she is talking about?

4. Do you think the gender of the main character, being ‘The Woman’ was a deliberate choice? Would it change things if her character was a man?
