WORKS BY WOMEN supports theatrical work written, directed, and/or designed by women* by promoting their work on our website, in the press and on social media. This website serves as a tool for both theatergoers and professionals alike. We list productions that have at least a 50% female creative team, and highlight women's theatre companies and advocacy groups. We also host a database of female* playwrights, directors, and designers whose work we have seen through Works by Women. In addition, Works by Women organizes "Play" Dates to attend theatre productions, thus supporting with our time and money women theatre artists and the productions that hire them.
