“Trifles” portrays the story of two examinations concerning the murder of John Wright. The male characters bear on the official investigation while the female characters carry on an unofficial investigation. As the title of the play, “Trifles” indicates the worries of women are thought to be simply waste of time and insignificant issues that bear practically no significance to the genuine work of society, which, obviously, is being done by men. The sex generalizations are seen through the part of male and female characters which demonstrate the refinements between the two characters which are unequal and are developed by the societal values.

Trifles, written in the early 1900’s by Susan Glaspell, is a one-act play illustrating how women can overreact to their own emotions, allowing these emotions to cloud their judgment. This is shown by describing the feelings of two women who are willing to defend a suspect, blame the victim, and go so far as to hide evidence, to protect another woman from being charged with murdering her husband. Mrs. Wright is the suspect in the murder of her husband, who was strangled in his sleep, found with the rope still around his neck. The sheriff and an attorney are examining Mrs. Wrights home for evidence. Mr. Henderson, the attorney, speaking of Mrs. Wright says, “Here’s a nice mess, ..Dirty towels! Not much of a housekeeper,

“Trifles” a play written by Susan Glaspell is also a short story named “A Jury of her Peers”. These two forms of writing that are similar in many regards but somewhat different when taken a closer look through. The following with compare and contrast the genres of the story, give a detailed reasoning on why one is better than the other, and a preference on which title is better and alludes more to the writing.

The audio and visual representations of Trifles captured the main aspects the play. During the first scene, Glaspell establishes the plot, setting, and characters. As a result, the first scene, which presents the murder of John, Mrs. Wright husband, is a vital aspect of the play. The first scene begins with the Sheriff, George Henderson, who is the attorney, Lewis and Martha Hale, and the Sheriff’s wife. All the characters are gathered in Mrs. Wright's living room discussing the murder and the events leading up to the murder. All in all, the audio and visual plays remained true to the original written version, captured the emotion, and lived up to my expectations, but they both contained similarities and differences.

Trifles is a play written by Susan Glaspell referring to the early 1900's. In this play Glaspell wrote about a woman who murder her husband for killing the only thing that kept her company, a bird. When Mrs. Hale finds Mr. Wright dead she sends her husband (Harry) to notify the coroner. As the men are trying to find evidence of what caused Mr. Wrights death, the women hide the evidence. Glaspell's character Mrs. Hale and Mrs. Peters are both round characters, Mrs. Hale feels guilty while Mrs. Peters tone changes towards the end of the play.

Susan Glaspell’s most memorable one-act play, Trifles (1916) was based on murder trial case that happened in the 1900’s. Glaspell worked as a reporter, where she appointed a report of a murder case. It was about a farmer, John Hossack who was killed while he was asleep in bed one night. His wife claimed that she was asleep next to him when the attack occurred. No one believed in her statement, she was arrested and was charged on first degree murder.

Susan Glaspell’s play, Trifles, shows the importance of staging, gestures, and props to create the proper atmosphere of a play. Without the development of the proper atmosphere through directions from the author, the whole point of the play may be missed. Words definitely do not tell the whole story in Trifles - the dialog only complements the unspoken.

The play Trifles takes place in a rural area and centers around a woman, Mrs. Wright, who has been accused of killing her husband by strangling him. The act starts off in Mr. and Mrs. Wright’s home on a cold, winter morning the day after Mr. Wright’s body was discovered by the neighbor; the county attorney, the sheriff and his wife and the neighboring farmer and his wife are all inside the

A trifle is something that has little value or importance, and there are many seeming "trifles" in Susan Glaspell's one-act play "Trifles." The irony is that these "trifles" carry more weight and significance than first seems to be the case. Just as Glaspell's play ultimately reveals a sympathetic nature in Mrs. Peters and Mrs. Hale, the evidence that the men investigators fail to observe, because they are blind to the things that have importance to a woman, reveals the identity of the murderer and are, therefore, not really "trifles," after all. Thus, the title of the play has a double-meaning: it refers, satirically, to the way "trifling" way some men perceive women, and it also acts as an ironic gesture to the fact that women are not as "trifling" as these men make them out to be. This paper will analyze setting, characters, plot, stage directions, symbolism, themes and genre to show how Glaspell's "Trifles" is an ironic indictment not of a murderess but rather of the men who push women to such acts.

      While reading Susan Glaspell's play Trifles, the use of characters, descriptive language, and symbolism teaches the audience that one person's home and one person's way of living can also be an introduction to one person's private hell.  Throughout the play, discoveries are made to teach the audience that maybe things are not what they seem and that sometimes people must take a deeper look into what is around them.

"Trifles" is a play with a unified plot. Although there are verbal flashbacks to the events of the day of the murder of John Wright, the play's entire plot begins and ends in a span of one day. The author also extends the unified plot to create a single setting (the farmhouse kitchen). The plot centers on John Wright's murder. Mrs. Wright is the main suspect; an investigation is taking place as to the motive or reason for the crime.
