Getting Out is a play which the heroine pursues subjective ego in a patriarchal society. In Getting Out, Marsha Norman created two central characters: Arlene, a woman sent to a prison for a second-degree murder, robbery, forgery and prostitution, and who is get portrayed as a positive force and Arlie, the negatively portrayed foil of the same woman. This transformation process of the heroine has three stages. In the first stage, Arlie comes to recognize her crimes and tries to commit suicide as she has a weak self. This stage is called the recognition stage. In the second stage, Arlene confesses her past to Ruby, her neighbor. Ruby knows the terror of solitude and the frustration of menial jobs, so Ruby knows all the line men use and protects Arlene from them. This stage is called the bond stage. In the third stage, Arlene refuses men’s seduction and finds the right job in which she works hard at. This stage is called the independent stage. In conclusion, Arlene comes to have subjective and active self through three stages. Arlene comes to find a new self by Ruby’s bond. She comes to be subjective self which has confidence, option, female desire, judgement and business want.
