About the Show
A world without men? How delicious.
The winner of last year's SoHo Playhouse Lighthouse Series, Hungry Women is a world-premiere dark comedy that speculates: “What would happen if men went extinct, and women were in charge?”
Starring Tony Nominee Julia Lester (Into the Woods, All Nighter), this original play explores hundreds of years of absurd and twisted what-if herstory by way of a sharp script, gripping performances, and an unapologetically feminist lens. In between the cannibalism, ghosts, and science fiction, rising playwright Melissa Maney examines survival, identity, sexuality, motherhood, and the reshaping of power in the absence of the patriarchy.
In the end, it asks: What are women most hungry for?
Come find out.
