Truth Values

Created in response to former Harvard President Lawrence Summers’ infamous suggestion that women are less represented than men in the sciences because of innate gender differences, TRUTH VALUES is a true-life tale that offers a humorous, scathing, insightful and ultimately uplifting look at the challenges of being a professional woman in a male-dominated field. Writer/performer and “recovering mathematician” Gioia De Cari brings to life more than 30 characters in a hilarious and deeply touching performance that has earned rave reviews from critics and stirred audiences to standing ovations.
