???????Open Book Theatre Company is helmed by Grosse Ile resident Krista Schafer Ewbank. "I've always been aware of the lack of roles, both onstage and off, for women. There are far more women at auditions and vying for jobs, but theatre is often still a man's world." According to a recent study by Wellesly Centers for Women less than 27% of theatres have women in the artistic director role. A 2015 study by the Dramatists Guild found that 78% of plays produced were written by men. "I always look for plays that feature strong roles for women. It's harder than you might think with so many plays being written by men. I think we've found a really good balance."
