Another DIFFICULT WOMEN scene study in this books. Had a very bittersweet moment tonight thinking about how this class was inspired by the #metoo movement to create a safe space for women and nonbinary folx and how necessary and relevant it still is. My hope is that this incredible outpouring of outrage over the Cornell 57 will inspire some meaningful change. Women did the work last time. Now it’s time for men to step up. by @difficult_women_scene_study

Next See A Play Club -> $5 off with SEEAPLAY Meaghan Robichaud Is The Greatest Show on Earth by Meaghan Robichaud March 27 at 8pm at The Brick Theater, 579 Metropolitan Ave An anti-acrobatic feat of flapdoodle and ballyhoo served up under the big top and all alleyooped by the world’s most fearless performer, Meaghan Robichaud. Step into the three rings of Robichaud’s pervo circus featuring the world’s worst male clown, Spunky T. Throw tomatoes and peanuts at this freak, as he breathes life into his goodness glory days of le cirque. A solo circus with no tricks, all shits (…and giggles). Get your greasepaint out and prepare to kiss this clown. WHY WE'RE DOING THIS: When this year’s seasons dropped with few to no women in the lineup, over 200 of us showed up at Playwrights Horizons to demand answers—and got none. So, we’re creating our own space. SEE A PLAY CLUB is our way of celebrating and supporting the women writing and directing today. by @difficult_women_scene_study

Join us Jan 17 at 4pm - TheatreMitu $10 Tix with code PARTNER Under the glow of a flickering screen, a daughter reconstructs her deceased father. Pixel by pixel, contradiction by contradiction. 2021 is a live performance where theatre, AI, and video-game storytelling converge, blurring the boundary between human remembrance and machine logic. An audience member steps into the role of Brian, an unhoused veteran reliving his final weeks inside a looping digital hospital: a labyrinth of corridors, bureaucratic dead ends, and fleeting human contact. Guided by his daughter’s narration, fragments of data become playable memory. Each decision glitches reality a little more. How do we provide dignity in death to those we fundamentally disagree with? Part elegy, part experiment, 2021 exposes the tenderness and terror of digital resurrection. It asks not whether machines can think, but whether memory itself is a kind of simulation. Note: 2021 includes flashing lights, audience participation, violence, crude language, references to war, racism, and sexism. Participation and active spectatorship is a central part of 2021. ABOUT THE ARTISTS Cole Lewis (she/her) is a mom and mad theatre artist from St. Catharines, Ontario. She specializes in creating live performance from design ideas, exploring new modes of storytelling, and fusing technologies to the stage. Her practice includes directing, playwriting, and the design of moving image works. Twice nominated for Dora-Awards, Cole’s practice uses humour, design, and technology to explore notions of class and violence, expose questions of bias, and unsettle standard conceptions of ‘truth’ to explore alternative futures. She has an MFA in Directing from Yale and her thoughts on performance have been shared at LMDA, Howlround, FOLDA, Yale CCAM, and Canadian Theatre Review. by @difficult_women_scene_study

Join us on October 24 at 7:300 PM at Chapter I: The Bride and the Goodnight Cinderella at Powerhouse Arts, 322 3rd Ave, Brooklyn, NY. Limited $30 tickets available through the link @Today Tix. In the first chapter of the Cadela Força Trilogy, Brazilian director and writer Carolina Bianchi stages a shocking and vulnerable exploration of art and narratives of sexual violence that haunt women across history. Blending theater and performance art, she constructs a layered, destabilizing tapestry of stories, images, movement, and figures drawn from both contemporary and art-historical sources. The catalyst is a real event: the rape and murder of a performance artist whose work explored faith in human kindness. From there, Bianchi assembles a fractured mythology of femicide, where memory blurs and trauma generates new meaning. Created with the collective Cara de Cavalo, The Bride and the Goodnight Cinderella is a journey into the abyss, a hole in the desert, a spiked glass of “Goodnight Cinderella.” What happens after? HOW TO PARTICIPATE: Buy your own ticket and show up. Drinks after! WHY WE'RE DOING THIS: When this year’s seasons dropped with few to no women in the lineup, over 200 of us showed up at Playwrights Horizons to demand answers—and got none. So, we’re creating our own space. SEE A PLAY CLUB is our way of celebrating and supporting the women writing and directing today. Come for the play.

Stay for the community. 💥 ABOUT IRANIAN GIRLFRIEND It’s the middle of June and you’re at an airport bar. She’s perched in a corner drinking gin and reading about revolution in dark times. She’s got a line from a poem tattooed on her arm and you ask her who wrote it. She makes you strawberry jam and tells you about Sylvia Plath and other women who lived through wars, contemplated divorce, and bought a lot of fancy dresses. It’s almost winter now and you bring her home to meet your parents. They think her name is interesting. A darkly comic performance installation about displacement, divorce, and dark times, IRANIAN GIRLFRIEND combines solo performance, video installation, and runway fashion to unpack the untold history and precious objects of a woman on the run, challenging America’s narrow sense of self while offering fresh perspectives on womanhood and belonging. taken in Theater Mitu by @difficult_women_scene_study
