The Women in Theatre Lab and Liverpool Everyman and Playhouse are delighted to invite you to the very first Women in Theatre speed networking event, for female theatre makers.
Join us for an hour’s ‘In Conversation’ advice session with Jennifer Tuckett (Director, Women in Theatre Lab), Yusra Warsama and Nathan Powell (Associate and Creative Directors, Everyman & Playhouse), followed by a one-hour speed networking event and a chance to meet and talk with other women working in theatre.
We encourage attendees to bring 3 questions or problems you’d like advice on, to discuss one-to-one with other artists during the speed networking session.
The bar will be open after the event for continued informal conversations.
Research from the five-year Women in Theatre research project (run in partnership with The Writers’ Guild of Great Britian, WOW, Equity, Sphinx and others) has found that advice sessions and networking helps improve the sustainability of women’s careers in the arts, tackling issues such as the majority of caring responsibilities falling on women and a lack of women in leadership roles.
So, in the month of International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month, we hope you’ll join us for this special event!
Babes in arms are welcome, with a changing space available.
Note: We’ve chosen to make this event free, but places are limited. If you reserve a space and aren’t able to come, please contact Box Office so they can release the ticket.
