A play for women… and the men who want to understand them.

“Funny, compelling”– New York Times

“Funny, powerful, sweet and saucy! Goes directly to the heart, soul and vanity of every woman, young and old.”– Variety

The Story

A play by, for, and about women: their lives, their memories, their mothers… and their clothes. From first bras to prom dresses to that little black dress, this insightful comedy celebrates the deep and abiding love/hate relationship women have with their wardrobes.

Announcing the Retirement of Founding Executive Director David Rice & Ceasing Operations in 2023

Over two-and-a-half decades we have mounted over 80 productions, produced 14 world premieres, and 6 commissions. We have had more shows directed by women in the past 25 years than almost any other Equity theater in the Chicago area. We also led the way in opportunities for women designers, resulting in multiple Jeff Nominations and Awards for the many women who have worked here. Thank you all for your steadfast support through all these years. We will miss you!
