📣 MOXIE Theatre is casting the US Premiere of UNTITLED F*CK M*SS S**GON PLAY, written and directed by Kimber Lee.

What if we have learned from history, but we’re doomed to repeat it anyway?
Across decades and contexts, a woman finds herself in a toxic relationship with colonialism, Orientalism, and war—all dressed up in a suit. What happens when she puts her foot down? UNTITLED F*CK M*SS S**GON PLAY holds a funhouse mirror up to ridiculous romanticized projections to create a work of searing satire.

🎭 MEET Katie MacNichol, who brings Stevie to life in THIS IS GOVERNMENT!

Stevie may not be one of the interns trapped inside the government office—but she’s no stranger to the chaos. As a daily caller who has become newly pessimistic, Stevie offers a sharp, unexpected perspective on a system that seems increasingly impossible to navigate. And with Katie MacNichol in the role, you’ll want to pay close attention whenever Stevie enters the conversation. 👀

THIS IS GOVERNMENT by Nina Kissinger is a darkly funny, timely look at power, politics, and what happens when ordinary people are caught in the middle of a crisis.

Catch Katie MacNichol as Stevie, LIVE ON STAGE at MOXIE Theatre, where THIS IS GOVERNMENT is being performed and produced September 27–October 25.

Gloria Steinem.
A voice.
A force.
A trailblazer.

For nearly a century, Gloria Steinem challenged us to question the rules, speak up, take up space, and imagine a world where equality wasn’t an aspiration—but a reality.

As a journalist, activist, author, and co-founder of Ms. magazine, she helped shape the feminist movement and changed the cultural conversation around women’s lives and rights.

But her legacy was never just about the words she wrote or the movements she helped build.

It was about making people feel seen. Heard. Empowered.

She believed in curiosity. In independence. In humor. In the power of people coming together to create change.

Gloria Steinem died Wednesday at 92, surrounded by people who loved her. And, according to her family and foundation, she continued working for equality until the very end.

Her work changed generations.

Now, it’s ours to carry forward.

Rest in power, Gloria. 🕊️

UNGOVERNABLE. That’s the spirit of Season 22.

Our Season 22 launch party at Mujeres Brew House was more than a celebration—it was a preview of what it means to be UNGOVERNABLE.

Through special performances connected to our upcoming productions, our artists gave guests a taste of the bold, unapologetic stories coming to the stage this season. The energy was real. The performances were unforgettable. And the message was clear: we’re not here to play by the rules.

📸 Take a look at the photos from our launch party and see what you missed!

Don’t just watch from the sidelines. Be part of Season 22.

🎟️ Get your tickets and experience these stories live.
🔥 Sponsor a show and help us keep creating work that challenges, provokes, celebrates, and refuses to be contained.

Season 22: UNGOVERNABLE.
The season has begun. Are you ready to join us?
