Mitzi's Abortion

Mitzi's Abortion is a play by a Seattle-based playwright, Elizabeth Heffron. The play dramatizes the journey of a young woman who is advised by her doctor to have a late-term abortion due to anencephaly, a severe birth defect, in her child. The social and cultural conflicts that arise as a result of her and her doctor's decision serve as the basis for the play. The play originally ran at the ACT Theatre in Seattle in the summer of 2006.
