Mission Statement for the Series

The Second Sex Series at Bailiwick Repertory is inspired by Simone de Beauvoir's book The Second Sex from 1949. We are dedicated to arts that give women prominence. The Second Sex Series intends to tackle themes ranging from entertaining to political to provocative through traditional plays including new works, classics and musical theatre. We will expand our performance medium by creating special events with performance artists, visual artists, dancers, poets, and other collaborative artists. The Second Sex series will include gender issues, diversity issues and gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender concerns.
