WOMEN IN THEATRE FESTIVAL NYC

On June 3, 2017 I had the honor of performing ACT LIKE A FEMINIST ARTIST at the 2nd annual WOMEN IN THEATRE FESTIVAL produced by Project Y Theatre. 


Here's more about WIT from PROJECT Y Theatre

In an effort to broaden opportunities for women playwrights, Project Y Theatre Company has commissioned nine female playwrights in two separate productions, Great Againan evening of plays by Crystal Skillman and Chiori Miyagawa, and The Hrosthvitha Project, 7 adaptations of the 10th century female-written play “Dulcitius” written by playwrights Caridad Svich, Pia Wilson, Julienne Hairston, Michole Biancosino, Lia Romeo, Stacie Lents, and Erin Mallon.

How can you not love the fact that PROJECT Y wants to create #GenderParity in theatre by going #BeyondParity and flooding NYC with new plays by women, directed by women, supported by women-led companies, and featuring lots and lots of... yes, women actors! Kudos to co producers Michole Biancosino and Andrew W. Smith.

Join me in supporting this important festival -- Do not miss Great Again, an evening of plays in two parts: Test by Crystal Skillman (directed by Jessi Hill) and In the Line by Chiori Miyagawa (directed by Kristin Horton and choreographed by Sonoko Kawahara). Both plays were commissioned by Project Y Theatre Company and written as a response to the November 2016 election. Read a recent REVIEW
