Bravo takes a deep dive into gender bias with a bold social experiment in the new limited event series, 'In A Man's World' premiering Tuesday, October 1st at 10pm ET/PT. From Viola Davis and husband Julius Tennon's JuVee Productions and Lucky 8, the eye-opening series follows four dynamic women who embark on the journey of a lifetime as they transform into men to experience life from the opposite side. With the help of Academy Award-winning Special Effects make-up team, Lou and Dave Elsey, and skilled voice and movement coaches, each woman develops her own alter ego and spends two days living in a man's world. After their frustration at being disregarded because of their gender, the women are looking to flip the script and experience a day without bias from the very same people who held them back in the past.
