About the Show

Cayenne Douglass' drama charting an all-female submarine crew's voyage gone awry.

It's the maiden voyage of the first all-female patrol aboard a US submarine. Motivated by a subconscious need to overcompensate for gender inequality, The Captain slowly loses grip of her integrity in order to get ahead, with the thoughts of plaudits about a successful voyage spurring her on.

'Maiden Voyage' explores the intersection between opportunity and marginalization and the mimicry of maleness to get ahead.
