On Wednesday, November 10 at 7:30 PM ET, "No Pants in Tuscon" will have an ASL interpreted performance.
The Anthropologists' new subversive comedy, "No Pants in Tucson," draws upon blatantly bigoted state laws from the 19th and 20th centuries that made it illegal for women to wear pants in public, courageously blending time and form to untangle the generational impact of gender oppressive laws. The world-premiere of "No Pants in Tucson" begins November 5 and runs through November 14, 2021, at the Mezzanine Theatre at A.R.T./New York Theatres, 502 W 53rd St., New York 10019.
On Monday, November 8 at 7:30 PM ET, Dr. Lisa Merrill and The Anthropologists will lead a YouTube Live conversation that untangles the history of clothing, gender, race & cultural policy and the practice of policing non-gender conforming bodies in the 19th and 20th centuries.

For the past 13 years The Anthropologists have been centering women's experiences and elevating historically marginalized voices. With a creative and producing team of women, non-binary, and transgender artists, "No Pants in Tucson" unmasks the real lives impacted by archaic, gender-suppressive laws.
The Anthropologists will be observing full COVID safety protocol for the No Pants In Tucson production. Patrons will be masked in the theater and asked to show proof of vaccination at check in.
