All The Best Roles Are Written For Men
Hayman Theatre
Event by Kate O’Sullivan
Duration: 10 days
Every audition room is full to bursting with female talent – so why are there so few roles for women? Is it a relic of historical oppression, a by-product of the stories we tell, or simply a fact of life? Take a musical journey through classic and contemporary theatre with Kate O’Sullivan, to discover why female theatre artists of all kinds still find themselves bonking their heads on the “glass curtain”, and why all the best roles are written for men.
All The Best Roles Are Written For Men is a one-woman musical cabaret starring Kate O’Sullivan.
“Kate has proven her immense talent in serious monologues and dramatic productions.” GordonTheOptom, 2022
“I loved seeing O’Sullivan bring the new element of a powerful woman working through traditionally masculine problems. ” Theatre Travels, 2020
