Abstract
This manifesto passionately argues that theatre is not Feminist until it is transformative and unless it includes all of us. The Theatre Feminist is not a formula where you “just add women and stir.” It’s not just plays that are by, about, and for women. Feminist requires a fundamental shift in hierarchy and power that does not implicate people only individually and personally, but collectively and entirely. Its goal must be to overthrow cis-hetero-patriarchy, and there is no overthrowing patriarchy without overthrowing capitalism and racist colonial imperialism at the same time. As I explore the relationship between feminism and communism in this manifesto, and debunk some easy assumptions about the Theatre Feminist along the way, I ground my ideas in reflections on my play Behaviour, recently produced by the Great Canadian Theatre Company and SpiderWebShow. Behaviour demands a recognition of the audience’s gaze and complacency. It asks for action from the people in the audience who may not be victims or perpetrators of sexual assault and labour abuse. And it refuses to leave the audience feeling enriched and satisfied with themselves for having had their awareness raised.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
