DCPA WOMEN’S VOICES FUND
Creating dedicated opportunities for female artists and leaders in theatre since 2005
Let’s give equal voice to women in theatre
The Women’s Voices Fund enables our Theatre Company to commission, workshop and produce new plays by women. This initiative was the first of its kind in the nation to champion the work of women in the American theatre and is currently valued at more than $1.7 million. Since the establishment of the fund in 2005, the DCPA Theatre Company has produced 39 plays by women (including 18 world premieres), supported the work of 46 female playwrights, and employed 33 female directors.
