My mom used to always refer to her woman's intuition whenever she turned out to be right about anything. I'm not sure I ever really bought into that concept. Woman's intuition seems to be the eventual emergence of common sense after you spend at least a little time in denial or ignoring your gut feeling. For example, a friend of the family left her husband after her "woman's intuition" told her he was up to some extracurricular activities. Well, yeah. What married father of two comes home consistently after 3 a.m. with some outlandish reason for his tardiness every single time? I mean, how many flat tires can you have? She knew the first time that creep slunk in the door at such an ungodly hour that something was up, and that was not woman's intuition...it was simple deduction. The whole idea of woman's intuition brings up some interesting gender issues, much of which is probed in the production of A Woman's Intuition at Stone Cottage Theater, 15650 Addison Road. Two separate one-act plays by writer/director Gina-Nacole of GenaSys Productions examine a number of stereotypes and other social and cultural issues with a heavy dose of comedy and satire. A Woman's Intuition will show at 3 and 7 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Tickets are available at the door for $15 general admission and $20 for VIP admission.

Sat., Jan. 9, 3 & 7 p.m.; Sun., Jan. 10, 3 & 7 p.m., 2010
