SAVE THE DATES!
THE 28TH ANNUAL LOS ANGELES WOMEN’S THEATRE FESTIVAL
AND STILL WE RISE!
IS COMING
MARCH 25- MARCH 30
_________________________________
Last March, the Annual Los Angeles Women’s Theatre Festival was just two weeks away from opening when we were forced to postpone because of the emerging coronavirus pandemic, which shuttered live performance venues across the country. The pandemic is still with us for a while longer, so we’re coming back in March 2021 with six consecutive dates of virtual presentations. The overall theme of the Festival this year is AND STILL WE RISE!….because we do.
The Los Angeles Women’s Theatre Festival (LAWTF) marks 28 years of producing well over 600 extraordinary multicultural and multidisciplinary solo performers from around the globe.
The longest running Annual Solo Festival for women in Los Angeles, LAWTF will take place March 25- March 30, 2021 online.
The virtual Champagne GALA and Awards Ceremony will take place Thursday, March 25, 2021 at 7:00 p.m.PST and will be hosted by Ted Lange (The Love Boat) and Hattie Winston (Becker), with Fay Hauser-Price (Hope Builders) at the helm as Festival Director.
The event will honor five women of exceptional achievement and contribution to the world of theatre:
Infinity Awardee – Diahann Carroll (awarded posthumously);
Rainbow Awardee – Paula Donnelly;
Integrity Awardee – Akuyoe Graham;
Eternity Awardee – Shigemi Matsumoto;
Maverick Awardee – Rose Portillo.
There will be live performances in addition to the awards presentation.

The Los Angeles Women’s Theatre Festival organization is supported this year in part by Los Angeles County Arts and Culture; Department of Cultural Affairs of the City of Los Angeles; City National Bank; Women in Media; KPFK 90.7; and Adilah Barnes Productions.
