Produced in collaboration with Creative Intelligence

Mainstage Series

In honor of Women’s History Month, Transy Theater presents Hellman’s controversial 1934 theatrical debut which erupted on Broadway but was shut down in cities including Boston, Chicago and London. When an unruly student weaponizes fear and misinformation, her schoolteachers Karen and Martha must fight to save their all-girls boarding school and themselves. A riveting exploration of shame, survival and the questions we ask (or reject) to seek truth. Free tickets will be available to the public two weeks before opening.
