MANSPLAINING at Old Fitz Theatre this August ImageHow do women survive in a man's world?

Allow award-winning duo, Alice Tovey and Ned Dixon to mansplain as they re-write the man-ual with their razor-sharp show, Mansplaining at the Old Fitz Theatre for 3 nights only from August 9 to 11 at 9:30 PM.

"Alice Tovey's insightful musical comedy skewers gender expectations" (The Age), taking audiences on a journey of masculinity, misogyny and the millennial man.

Original songs such as 'Mansplaination' and 'I'm not racist...I just say racist things' are layered in meaning and hilarious in execution. A mixed media presentation of music, voice, kazoos, and Destiny's Child sock puppets, Mansplaining is a "confident, proud and bright" (Herald Sun) production that embodies the "feminist, political and brilliantly cynical" (The Australian) style Tovey and Dixon are renowned for.
