This Is a Classic! Live! 36 Plays by Women You Should Know at Caveat
Sure, you know Shakespeare... but how many classic WOMEN writers do you know?

Through Hedgepig Ensemble Theatre's cornerstone program, Expand the Canon, they've developed a database of over 6,000 plays by women and non-binary playwrights. But that's a lot to unpack! So, every year, a group of curators and aficionados read 250+ titles to find the 9 most exciting, timely, and producible works to celebrate and advocate for.

Join us on January 22 at a live show of their podcast, This is a Classic!, as Hedgepig celebrates their 36 plays by women throughout history (the same number of plays as Shakespeare wrote!) Visit www.expandthecanon.com to learn about them all.

Featuring curators: Emily Lyon, Shannon Corenthin, Triza Cox, Gagarin, Kalino Ko, and Skye Pagon, and special guests to be announced!

The Future of Classics is Female!
