For a decade Jamie Loftus and Caitlin Durante have been dissecting how movies treat women on The Bechdel Cast, and the anniversary tour turns it into a live party with videos, games and fan fiction. The hosts perform in costume and invite the audience to come dressed as a movie character too. If you're a listener, this is the holiday Monday plan.
What to expect
Expect a lively live-podcast show in The Bell House's converted warehouse room, with a bar, a stage and an audience that knows the running jokes. Many fans show up in movie-character costumes.
