Strong Female Role

by Beth
(Colorado)

I'm planning a birthday party for a girlfriend and about 20 adult guests (male & female). Backstage Business seems to have a fun plot and theme. I want to be sure that the birthday girl has a significant role where she can shine.

Are there any strong female roles in Backstage Business? or Is there another mystery you would recommend for this celebration?

This site is super helpful and I appreciate your feedback.

My response:

Fifteen of the characters in Backstage Business are ungendered - only five are written as female. (Only two male characters!)

There are lots of strong roles in Backstage Business, and I imagine you can find a role suitable for your friend among the female and ungendered characters.

I hope that helps.
