Abstract:

The roles of women in theater have come under increasing scrutiny in recent years as they face discrimination and inequality. In response, Ashley Popio, a Raleigh-based stage artist and producer, is organizing the Women’s Theatre Festival. In August, the festival will present full-length works written and directed by women, with women composing at least half of the casts.
