A new work-in-progress by Young Jean Lee's Theater Company
Written and directed by Young Jean Lee

Young Jean Lee uses her hilariously disorienting approach to explore the subject of feminism in her latest project, UNTITLED FEMINIST MULTIMEDIA TECHNOLOGY SHOW (UFMTS). A butch chauvinist and her bad-boy-loving friend visit a feminist utopia full of dancing fairies in this work-in-progress showing that will not only give a glimpse into the early development of the show, but will also invite the audience into the process by engaging them in conversation with Young Jean and her all-star female cast. UFMTS will seduce with contradictory images of women, intensifying and proliferating a sense of female beauty and power that goes beyond the limited options we’ve all been trained to desire.
