SerahRose Roth Way back in 2008, or maybe it was 2009, I went to the launch party for the Boston-based Awesome Foundation. A bunch of people who wanted to give money to awesome causes got together and decided to jointly gift $1000 a month to something cool. They prefer projects like marshmallow launchers and [...] GAN-e-meed joined Actor’s Shakespeare Project and many others to celebrate the bard’s birthday in Harvard Square last Saturday. #gallery-1 { margin: auto; } #gallery-1 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 50%; } #gallery-1 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-1 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } Stay-tuned for some videos of the [...] PART 5: NEXT STEPS Follow-up meetings Salons – theme-centered, limited size Starting a play club – Similar to 50/50 in 2020, creating a group to go to plays by women Gabrielle Orcha is starting Incubator 145, a company devoted to new work across artistic disciplines Hosting non-theatre-related activity nights Gan-e-Meed networking nights in May and [...] PART 4: BREAKOUT SESSIONS At this point, we moved into breakout sessions on the most popular topics that came up over the course of the panel discussion and Q&A: Networking, Mentorship, and Age-Related Issues.

After finding herself thinking that the girls (who made up the bulk of the auditioners) were performing worse than [...] PART 2: THE PANEL DISCUSSION CONTINUES Jen is asking if the panelists are surprised by Boston’s data, and the fact that it seems to reflect that Boston is doing better than average with regards to gender parity. Courtney asked how the Boston data broke down by budget. SerahRose was unable to verify budgets of fringe [...] Hi everyone!

So although some of us were still tweeting (when we weren’t busy focusing on what was being said because, trust me, there were some thrilling life challenges, questions, and observations soaring around the room), we weren’t able to live blog. No worries, Katie & Jess still [...] Panel begins at 6:30 at the Boston Center for the Arts. Full bios of the panelists are available.
