Beautiful People, thank you for your support of Women & Theatre! As of July 2025, Women & Theatre is on an indefinite hiatus. Please continue to enjoy the archive of our interviews with women and gender-expansive folks in theatre.

Women & Theatre RISE Series

Women & Theatre is a proud network partner of RISE Theatre, which seeks to build a more equitable and inclusive theatre industry. This fall, we were thrilled to partner with Playbill to run a podcast booth at the RISE Inaugural Summit. At our podcast booth, we interviewed representatives from other network partner organizations about the inspiring work they are doing to increase equity in theatre. In this bonus series, we share these mini-interviews. Get ready to be inspired!
