On Jan. 22, 1973, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Roe v. Wade that the Constitution grants people who are pregnant the right to terminate that pregnancy. Now, nearly 50 years later, the Helmerich School of Drama and University Theatre will recount and explore the experiences and activism of the women behind the historic decision with its upcoming performance of âRoe.âÂ
âRoeâ was published in 2019 and written by Lisa Loomer, co-screenwriter of the 1999 film Girl, Interrupted. The play follows the stories of lawyer Sarah Weddington and plaintiff Norma McCorvey, better known as âJane Roe,â according to a press release.Â
ââRoeâ explores the ways in which truth is refracted and renegotiated over time by diverse groups of people,â said director Nancy Bell in the release, âsomething we will all have to grapple with more and more in the coming years.âÂ
PUBS across Oxfordshire have been open again for almost two weeks. On April 12, pubs with outdoor areas were able to reopen for groups of no more than six. Because it has been just outside spaces open, it has raised the question of smoking at pubs. We asked readers: Do you think smoking should be banned in beer gardens? Here’s how they reacted:
Emma Hunter: When the smoking ban first came in, there were hundreds of pubs closing each day. And now due to Covid, it could be happening all over again.
Rowan Wright: No. Leave it to the pubs. There is very weak evidence for harm from second-hand smoke outside (so no need for concern re staff) and other than that, the market can decide (if we non-smokers want a smokeless garden, we can go to a pub with those rules).
