TWTP Presents the 12th Annual Women's Work Festival

Beginning September 7, for the twelfth year in a row, Tennessee Womens Theater Project presents its annual Womens Work festival of performing and visual arts created by women. Running at North Nashville's Looby Theater through Sunday September 23, the festival cuts a broad swathe across styles and genres to offer eleven completely different programs: poetry and storytelling ; staged readings of new plays; film, dance, music and a display of visual art works. Individual tickets are $10, and a Festival Pass good for admission to all shows is just $60, and a Mini-Pass priced at $30 offers admission to any four shows. 60% of ticket revenue goes toward compensating the presenting artists. Women's Work is presented with the support of our 2017-2018 Season Sponsor HCA TriStar Healthcare, and individual donors - like you!
