Abstract
In this paper, we will try to analyse the anti-initiation of the protagonist of the drama Doll Ship into the world of adults, into the world of the hegemony of masculinity. The process that the heroine goes through can be considered as anti-initiation and is embodied in the title metaphor of a doll ship. By changing the fable stages of a fairy tale, varying typical situations, and by dialogues filled with jargon and songs, a plot is formed, through which the main heroine, the Woman, (does not) progress. Sharp, cruel banalization serves to demystify and expose common female roles and positions.
