About the Event

Brought to you by Castleburg Brewery and Taproom, Copycat Cakes, Julep's New Southern Cuisine and Salon 33.

They were warned. They were given an explanation. They decided they would not be silenced! The history of women is the history of humankind. Women who work and women who fight; women who love and women who have lost. From Queen Boudica to Josephine Baker to Ruth Bader Ginsberg, these are their stories, told as only they could tell them, in the skin which is rightfully theirs to bare.

This show is also a fundraiser for The Carol Adams Foundation, a 501c3 charity whose mission is to provide emergency assistance to women and children who are victims of domestic violence. Through the foundation, women and children will have a temporary safety net which will enable them to live violence-free and have the opportunity to become self-sufficient. A portion of the ticket and raffle sales will be donated, as well as any additional donations audience members choose to make during the show.
