The Inferior Sex
It’s the summer of 1972. As the war in Vietnam intensifies, the battle to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment ramps up across the nation, and Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm remains undeterred in her campaign for president.
In midtown Manhattan, a small woman’s magazine is on the verge of collapsing and threatens to dash the hopes and dreams of a group of women tired of being treated as second class.
“The Inferior Sex” by Jacqueline E. Lawton is a poignant and hilarious behind-the-scenes look at a woman’s magazine that gets political, faces hard truths, and breaks new ground in an ever-changing world.
Trinity Repertory Company presents the world premiere of “The Inferior Sex.” This production will run Mar. 16–Apr. 16, 2023, in Providence, RI.
