Directed by Drama Desk Winner Karen Carpenter (“Love, Loss, and What I Wore”) with a larger-than-life performance from actress and writer, Jessica Sherr (“Claws,” “Blue Bloods”), BETTE DAVIS AIN’T FOR SISSIES tells the dramatic and extraordinary life story of one of Hollywood’s biggest stars of all time—the indomitable Bette Davis.

From her headline-making affairs with William Wyler and Howard Hughes and four failed marriages to the shocking upset she suffered at the 1939 Academy Awards and her relentless fight for equality against the male-dominated studio system in Hollywood, Davis’ incredible story of resilience continues to be relevant even in today’s world.

On-screen, Davis was an iconic actress known for playing strong, unapologetic and complex women. Off-screen, Davis was a fiery spirit and a fearless activist who fought tirelessly for women’s rights—including equal pay—and fought against ageism and sexism in Hollywood. Her bravery was unparalleled and for many, Davis remains an enduring symbol of resistance and resilience.
