our thanks to

Support Dangerous Women Dangerous Women adhere to one common mantra, "well behaved women seldom make history." As a diverse cast of artists,

our goal is to bring the forgotten or historically repressed stories of important women and feminine archetypes to light on

the stage. For the fifth season, we've banded together to research and reveal women's stories.

Dangerous Women’s performers, stagehands, writers and crew are all volunteers. Gifts to Dangerous Women pay for

costuming, technical needs (including audio production, and complex aspects of visual staging) and sets. We deeply

appreciate the many forms of support we receive. Together we build community, honor women and share stories that enrich

all our lives.

Visit the Dangerous Women gifting table in the lobby for more information.
